We understand that recruiting talent for leadership and growth requires special effort.  And, if your organization is not located in a major metropolitan area, recruiting can be a daunting task. Some of our Coaching Partners have deep search experience and understand the challenges. When we are engaged our focus is with Midwest companies and our fees are calculated on a Flat Fee basis versus 35% of total compensation which other firms use. We make managing recruiting budgets easier. Moreover, we understand the kind of person you look for when hiring. We utilize all the recruitment tools to ensure a slate of candidates who are the "right fit" for your unique organization and location.
Right Fit 
 
PinnacleES partners with you throughout an engagement to ensure hiring a person who is the right fit, that is, one who meets the tangible and intangible requirements of the position. Tangible qualifications are easily identified but finding the correct intangibles....communication style, strategic agility, intellect, coaching/mentoring ability, leadership style under pressure and core values are most often what ensures a new hire's contribution to organizational growth.
By using a 7- Step Search Process, behavioral based-interviewing and assessment instruments like Inscape Publishing's DiSC profile, we deliver successful solutions to your organization and its recruiting challenges.
