Uncovering and Accessing Candidates
Kensington International prides itself in “leaving no stone unturned” while executing an assignment on a clients’ behalf. We have access to an extensive proprietary database and supplement candidate development needs with direct research, data mining and key outreach efforts to all relevant vertical and/or trade associations. We do this on a nationwide and global basis.
Blocking / Off-Limits
Unlike the largest of firms, Kensington International does not conduct thousands of searches per year for hundreds if not thousands of clients. As a result, the "boutique" nature of the firm means we can approach many if not all of your desired targets as we enter into the market on your behalf. Blocking will not be an issue.
Search/Selection & On-Boarding: One Firm
With a combined business model that includes Executive Search, Outplacement and Leadership Services, Kensington International is one of a handful of firms that can quickly and accurately assess the critical competencies required for success in a company or role and use this information as a baseline for evaluating all or a sub-set of the candidates we present. Utilizing the assessment results, we can also apply simple and effective coaching techniques to assist the organization with On-Boarding, thus making sure selected candidates have a effective action plan to best work their way into the new corporate culture. This is how Kensington takes the guesswork out of traditional executive search.
Process – Process – Process
Listening to our clients along with developing and following a well-organized, thoughtful and methodical strategy typically leads to the successful completion of search assignments in the shortest possible timeframes. Kensington International prides itself in keeping its cycle time averages among the lowest in the industry. We manage multiple metrics on both a search-by-search and annual basis and our “Search Engine/Candidate Development Function” is incented to hit all key elements of our search process on individual and team levels.
