Can you identify with any of these hiring challenges?

This search is taking too long and it's costing me money!
Your mission-critical position has been open too long and you are losing revenue and efficiency.

This search is taking up too much of my time!
Your personal performance is suffering because the search is a time-vacuum.

I'm seeing mostly marginal and mediocre candidates!
You're only seeing resumes of the unemployed, the unqualified, and the unhappy come across your desk and can't seem to tap into the "passive" candidate market - that pool of successful candidates who are not currently looking for another opportunity.

That last person we hired was a big mistake!
The costs of a bad hire include more than just lost revenue. Training time, pay, insurance, & HR expenditures all make bad hires very costly.

The Turning Point Solution:

1. Establish a Strategic Hiring Plan. Your human capital needs must be defined and interwoven into your company's strategic plan.
   
   
2. Really define the candidate you seek. Superior performance in any position needs to be clearly defined in terms that are specific, measurable, results-oriented, and time-sensitive. All parties involved in the hiring process should agree to these specifications.
   
   
3. Develop a partnering relationship. Developing a partnering relationship with responsive communication between you and the search firm you work with is critical to the success of any search and will pay big dividends.
   
   
4. Spend time doing what you do best. By working with a quality executive search firm, like Turning Point, Inc., you are free to do your job and only look at the most qualified candidates for your mission-critical positions. No more resume overload. No more time wasted. Maximum personal efficiency for you.
