No one will dispute that the best candidates and hires come from personal referrals.
Our role is to be in a position to field a lot of great referrals. Historically it was difficult and basically impossible to reach out to the entire population of passive candidates and present an opportunity. It is now possible to present an opportunity to 95% of the entire eligible market by leveraging networks and technology.
Everything is everything.
Exhausting all of our resources and networks gives us the confidence that we are referring the absolute best to our clients. In turn it gives our clients the confidence to know that they are doing everything possible to house the best talent in their industry.
We are looking for the best talent in the market not just the best talent on the market.
