While it is helpful to build on previous search experience and our candidate base, we also realize it is important to acknowledge the unique aspects of each assignment. Ours is a custom designed approach to each search. Michael Stern Associates has been in the executive search business since 1982, and has worked with a variety of clients. A good deal of our work comes from repeat business. We believe this factor highlights our ability to complete searches successfully and on time.
Companies sometimes forget that executive recruiters have two jobs.
The obvious one is to find candidates that fit. The other job is to represent the client company to the business community in a professional manner. Our ethical, professional way of doing business is well known throughout North America. At Michael Stern Associates, the partner who accepts the assignment is involved in every aspect of the search, including the research. While a large database, full candidate access, and full partner involvement are important, what truly counts is hiring a successful candidate.
