At IDEX Consulting, we understand the cost and business implications of getting a key appointment wrong, especially in a Senior Appointment or key / time sensitive hire. That's why we developed our RETAINED SOLUTIONS.
For these critical hires, the old fashioned recruitment model simply doesn't work effectively. This traditional model is slow and ultimately focusses on candidates who are actively looking for a new role on job boards, social media and through agencies - This accounts for only c20% of the potential market for candidates. So while many of these candidates are of good quality, they may not be the BEST available to you, so why not focus on the 80%?
So to combat this, we developed our Retained Solution.....A fully tailored recruitment solution, designed to map the entire market to provide you with access to the best talent, better control of the message being communicated to the market and all in a much shorter timeframe than the old fashioned model.
Additionally, you will gain access to further market insight, intelligence and technology, supporting you in making the right hiring decision, ensuring you get the best person for the job. This is why we have a 100% success rate in Retained Search, with 98% of candidates staying within the business for over 5 years.
What’s even better, is that this investment rarely costs any more than a traditional model, it’s simply a different payment structure for a better result!
So what is our Retained Solution...Find out more from our CEO, Matt Green:
Key Benefits of the IDEX Retained Solution:
A full briefing meeting with your dedicated expert Consultant to plan all aspects of the hire and advise on the best process and technology to utilise.
You will be provided with a full breakdown of suitable individuals from a focused market map of individuals from both the active and passive markets. Suitable individuals who are not active "fly below the radar", allowing you a wider choice of the best candidates.
Candidates generated during your retained search are often “passive” and will remain exclusive to your process, reducing the competition for this talent.
We create a bespoke “Candidate Information Pack” detailing your company’s culture, ethos, challenges and goals. This creates a positive candidate journey and ensures the candidate is fully committed to the process, reducing the risk of losing your chosen candidate.
Option to access to our bespoke suite of technology, including Video CV's and Video Interviews, to save you further time in the process.
You can have a dual branded advertising campaign created for you, both on and offline to maximise the exposure of the vacancy.
Access to a suite of Psychometric tests to scientifically back up your interview process.
For larger volume hires, we are able to offer the creation of a Microsite, a dedicated recruitment site to streamline the recruitment process further.
The process is uniquely designed to maximise the result, resulting in a more time / cost efficient process and minimum impact to your business throughout.
But don't take our word for it....This is what one of our clients had to say about it!
