A 'Snapshot' of our Recruitment Approach
| FULL BRIEFING BY CLIENT SPECIFYING TARGET TALENT | Define talent profile (skills, competencies, behaviours and abilities) and the requirements that sit 'behind the position description' such as fit with company culture, etc. Understanding at this point is critical to the success of an assignment. |
|---|---|
| MULTIPLE SOURCING STRATEGY Search / Advertising / Research & Sourcing |
Identification of prospective candidates via a tailored strategy involving any or all of: The OCG Database, Research & Sourcing, Market Mapping, Media Advertising, International Recruitment Partnerships and Social Media & Networking. |
| ASSESSMENT Structured behavioural 'talent' and recruitment interview |
Our rigorous ongoing training programme at OCG ensures industry ‘best practice’ and protection of your brand. We interview and select for talent, fit and competencies so your candidates are well screened. |
