Services For Our Marketing Research Candidates
What
We Can Offer You…
Perhaps the most important things for
candidates to remember are:
- The
best time for individuals to contact a recruiter is when they don’t
need one. Over 70% of positions in the U.S. are filled through
professional recruiters. The majority of all companies have dealt
with headhunters at one time or another.
- Recruiters
provide candidates with a form of representation that can provide an
advantage when seeking a new job. Employers will take prospective
hires more seriously if they are presented by a third-party. Since
clients usually only engage headhunters when they need to fill a
vacancy, candidates can be sure that they are being put forward for
genuine vacancies and not applying for a job that has already been
filled.
It is your career-don’t leave it to chance
For many aspects of life you are best advised to
seek professional advice. Everyone knows to consult a lawyer on legal
matters, a doctor to stay healthy. Yet when it comes to our careers,
often even the most talented business people are happy to struggle
through by themselves, making unnecessary mistakes, poor choices, and
harmful career moves.
The good news is you don’t have to. There is
excellent and specialized advice available, and better yet it’s free.
Gruen & Associates has specialized executive
recruiters operating in every major industry all across the country. Our
recruiters are dedicated to scouring the markets to find perfect
candidates for each and every position our clients need to fill.
Why use a recruiter?
It’s common knowledge that high performers rarely
spend their time looking over Internet job boards. They are much more
likely to be focused on critical projects and delivering for their
company. For that reason, the best positions simply aren’t advertised.
Companies are not looking for unemployed candidates. Instead they
instruct us to delve into the market place to find the best talent
wherever they may be.
This does not mean that you should wait for a
recruiter to come calling. Smart candidates form a long-term relationship
with a recruiter they can work with and whom they can trust. Furthermore,
the recruiter can offer a critical eye on your career path and advise you
on steps you may need to take to sharpen up.
Tailored Candidate Services
As recruiters, we are employed by our clients to
help them make the right hires. If you have the potential for a position
we re recruiting for, we bring a raft of services and advice to help you
make the best of the opportunity, and best of all our advice and
expertise are free to the candidates.
Specific services we provide to the
candidates we work with include:
- Resume
advice. How to position yourself by emphasizing your achievements
and making the best of your talents.
- Interview
coaching. Specific advice on how to prepare for your interview and
detailed feedback once the interview is over. It is surprising how
many top candidates interview below their potential.
- Relocation
advice. This can also include helping you through the resignation
process.
- Briefings.
In depth preparation for all meetings with the hiring company,
including salary negotiation.
So what can you expect from us?
Working with a professional recruiter is not the
same as having an agent or lodging your resume with a run of the mill
employment agency. We need you to understand that we aim to find the
perfect match for each role; so we don’t guarantee that we will have a
suitable opportunity for you immediately. Instead, based on your detailed
preferences, we will identify and present to you only the positions that
accurately reflect your chosen professional path as they arise. Our goal
is win/win for both candidate and client.
As we proceed we will discuss opportunities in
detail, respect your choices and ask your permission to proceed with
client presentations of your background and experience.
