Approach
The search involves sourcing candidates at different levels, suitable for different roles within the same team. The consultants undertake a thorough face-to-face candidate screening, submit a refined shortlist of candidates to the organisation for review before arranging interviews. Our consultants support the final selection process, make the offers and close the successful candidates whilst providing thorough feedback to all parties.
Result: A growing team
Across the UK and US, Nicholson Search and Selection have placed over 190 people over the span of 10-12 years.
Although we work on both retained and contingency searches with Aptitude, we largely work with them exclusively. We attribute this to the time and care taken to truly know their business and our track-record of delivery.
Our summary
Working closely with Aptitude has been very rewarding. As the nature of their searches are very niche, it’s been an enjoyable challenge. I’ve found that if you dedicate time to understand the needs of individual business units and how companies operate internally – it accelerates your delivery and allows you to grow and develop alongside your clients. I’ve gone on to work with them across 3 continents.
