- First screening: calls with candidates, checks of experience and references.
- A shortlist of candidates for your interviews, candidate feedback and help agreeing the offer.

What executive search for a top manager costs
Managers are hired on the same terms as any other role, including the company’s CEO and other top executives: 50% of one monthly salary of the executive you hire, paid after they start, with a 30-day replacement. The percentage stays the same, so in money terms hiring a director costs more than hiring line staff.
We find candidates for top positions through executive search, headhunting and referrals, and keep negotiations confidential. The process is described on top management selection. Sales, finance, marketing and legal specialists are covered by mid-level recruitment, workers, sales assistants and operators by line staff recruitment, developers and IT managers by IT recruitment.
