3. For clients Each time we are asked to handle a new vacancy, we draw up a company profile and a function profile. The function profile describes the expertise and experience, the personal characteristics and the social skills that are needed for the job. Based on the two profiles, we draw up a vacancy announcement. We then contact candidates by filesearch, websearch and directsearch (headhunting). If necessary, we can also launch an advertised search in relevant media. A the beginning of each project, we like to agree to a planning. A speedy procedure is also possible. There is a solution to each problem, so if there is any specific service or way of consulting you need, we will be glad to be of service.

4. For candidates Each time we are asked to handle a new vacancy, we carefully search our files to look for candidates who match with the profile. Then we send the selected candidates a vacancy announcement that informs them about the company and the position. Through the years, career plans and wishes may change. Therefore we ask our candidates to update their curriculums and their preferences in terms of ambitions and job responsibilities. This way we are able to keep our files as up-to-date and solid as possible. We are constantly looking for suitable candidates and each new registration will be carefully dealt with by our consultants. Should your registration match our target group, we will include you in our files. If necessary, we will contact you for an extensive and general interview to get further acquainted.
