Our Process
Our established 5-step process not only provides guidance and balance, but it ensures you get the candidate you need. Throughout our process, we work closely with clients and candidates alike to ensure an efficient, effective and positive experience, providing the highest quality candidates - not the highest number of resumes or CVs.
-
1. Requirements
We gather a detailed understanding of your needs, and then search for indispensable key talent that have the right skill sets. Then we engage with candidates that we have been developing relationships for years to assess their temperament and personality. It sounds simple enough, but it requires a well-developed understanding of the role AND an understanding of what drives an individual candidate. Matching superb candidates with great opportunities is the goal.

2. Sourcing or Recruitment
With highly-specialized search expertise, we find the talent that others miss. We keep track of people by utilizing a sophisticated candidate tracking system that includes comprehensive information on professionals who may not be actively searching for a new job but are receptive to entertaining just the right offer. You won't find these people through many of our competitors, and you certainly won't see them on a job board. But we know who they are, where they are and what it would take to interest them to take the next step in their career. Job boards don't find great candidates, WarHorse Executive Search does.

3. Selection

Interviewing: Complete and honest feedback coupled with tailored advice during the entire interview process thus ensuring a smooth and seamless hiring transition.

“Mark Boeder and WarHorse Executive Search are simply one of the best recruitment firms I’ve ever worked with. As an executive leader here at MSI Data, one of my Talent Acquisition Goals is to try and fill all roles with our internal staff. But when I have exhausted all avenues, I have partnered with Mark Boeder and WarHorse Executive to acquire top talent. Many other recruiters are only transactional and waste my time by NOT asking the hard questions needed to understand the particular need, nor really listening but rather simply sending the resumes they have available and hoping stuff will stick to the wall. WarHorse Executive Search asks the right questions and then actively listens to understand the type of high impact hires we need and then match skills and personality to our work environment and culture. They are true professionals at what they do.”
