The Process
How it works
With over 25 years of success in executive search, Bob Eiland has added significant business value for high technology clients ranging from Microsoft, Facebook, iRobot, and Copyright Clearance center, through ground-floor start-ups.
We monitor and report on recruiting: workforce projections, talent maps and skills inventories, sourcing analyses and vendor reviews, internal prospect and employee assessments developed from interview team collaborationsā¦.
We develop social network strategies for LinkedIn, Facebook, etc., and use sophisticated analytics to track traffic, how information gets shared across networks, and referral and hiring outcomes. We build end-to-end, integrated views of all our sourcing and hiring activities and channels.
Executive search typically deals with the top 5-10%. By definition, there are far fewer inhabitants of this realm. And given the direct impact on company strategy and execution by this level of person, the stakes are a lot higher.
We know we are unlikely to fill a critical high-level executive or technologist opening in high tech by spreading the word and hoping for the best. We know we need to be proactive, and find the most effective ways to reach out to what is always a limited number of people who offer the rarified credentials we seek. This is where executive search fits in, where personal experience and wherewithal, and the art of high-level engagement, are at a premium.
