SOLUTIONS TO DIRECT HIRE

· Executive Search and Direct Hire Philosophy – Our founder built our organization on the following premise:

In order to make a successful placement, we must take into consideration the corporate culture of each firm we represent. Our screening process is much more than merely matching a resume to a job description. We actually visit each and every company site prior to seeking Candidates, when ever possible.If our clients are nationally based, we do an extensive debriefing of the hiring team. This allows is to know all the keys to making solid referrals of qualified individuals. This step in our process is critical in that we are able to see our clients’ environment and needs first hand. We take pride in every assignment we undertake and would rather sacrifice a placement opportunity than send under qualified or inappropriate Candidates. Dawson & Dawson Consultants are committed to providing Candidates that will not only excel at the job assigned, but will also match the company’s corporate culture. We know that 75% of a hiring decision is based on a personality and culture fit.

· Single point of contact

Unlike many of our competitors, we operate with a single point of contact for your Executive search and Direct Hire needs. Although every Consultant participates in the recruiting efforts for all open job searches, only one consultant will be sending the client resumes. The Account Manager will personally screen each potential Candidate and will represent them on behalf of our recruiting team. We send only the best Candidates that have met or exceeded rigorous screening processes. Therefore, you only have to select from our top 3 Candidates that have been selected from hundreds of individuals that did not meet your exact criteria.

· Thorough screening/interviewing

Our interviewing and screening process is unparalleled, as we represent only the top 10% of our Candidate pool. Unlike other firms, we are not resume brokers-nor do we function as a volume recruiting firm. To demonstrate this point, it is important to note that our Consultants do not utilize a database to make matches-we actually know all of our Candidates on a first name basis and can fully describe the Candidates’ qualifications, experience and personality type without referring to a resume.
Each Candidate is interviewed extensively to evaluate strengths, weaknesses, transferable skills, past experience and personality characteristics. We go as far as introducing each Candidate to every Consultant in the office. While this screening process is time consuming, it results in our ability to provide our clients with qualified Candidates who have been evaluated by our entire staff.
Our offices include a comprehensive testing packet with the most current software allowing us to assess computer skill capabilities on a variety of applications. We are pleased to test potential Candidates on whatever platforms our clients choose.

· How We Find Our Candidates

We recognize that advertising for talent is not always 100% effective. Therefore, we utilize that resource on a limited basis. We have learned that our strong personal network throughout the Orange County area and beyond has been vital to our success. More than 75% of our placed Candidates were referred to us by a Candidate or existing client. In many cases, our client becomes our Candidate and our Candidate may even become our client! We also utilize a high level of sophisticated networking that supersedes most staffing firms. Recently, a search for a C-Level executive produced over 300 passive qualified candidates based on this networking process.We can do that for you as well!
Our National Network can be available to you with just 1 phone call.

· Integrity

Dawson & Dawson is so confident in our ability to make lasting placements that we are offering a 60 day guarantee on all our placements. We are also proud of the fact that we maintain a less than 5% “fall-off” rate. Our Consultants accomplish this by taking personal pride in each search assignment they manage. We recognize that our personal reputations are on the line each and every time time we send a Candidate to interview. We are trustworthy, dependable and consistent.

· The Dawson & Dawson Staff

Our Consultants are some of the most experienced in the industry. Dawson & Dawson is highly selective in recruiting its’ own internal staff of professionals who are motivated to provide our clients with exceptional service. Each
consultant must go through a rigorous certification process upon joining Dawson & Dawson , independent on how many years of experience that they have when they join the company. This process helps educate them as to what
are our expectations. We believe in quality, not quantity, of our placement process. Our Account Management team approach helps our clients get the "World Class Staffing Service".
