TALENT MAPPING & MARKET RESEARCH

The global view

These services include:

Market surveys to assess candidate availability in a given location;
Salary and benefits surveys;
Identification and / or development of talent pools by skill, location and / or sector;
Employee or potential candidate surveys;
Resourcing strategy;
Project management.

PSYCHOMETRIC TESTING

Illuminating key decisions

Our research and interview process is designed to identify the specific skills, markets and experience needed to fulfil a client’s opportunity. However, knowing what people have achieved is only part of the picture; to create a strong match we need to understand why and how individuals have done so.

Psychometric profiling provides a valuable insight into the personality traits of potential recruits. Teamed with expert advice from our consultants, the results accurately predict.
