SEARCH ASSESSMENT OPTIONS


1st Aid International offers a variety of search options that can be individually customised to specifically meet each client’s executive recruitment needs. The most common executive searches include:


Retainer / Executive Search The Retainer option is used primarily when a position must be filled within a specific period of time. 1st Aid International provides an extended guarantee and executive candidates are presented to you on an exclusive basis. We guarantee an agreed-upon number of in-person interviews. 1st Aid International provides candidates on an exclusive basis.


Engagement / Executive Search The Engagement option is for high-priority positions and is typically utilised for sales, marketing, and middle-management staffing needs. An engagement fee is required to begin the search, with the final payment due on the candidate's start date. We guarantee an agreed-upon number of in-person interviews, and provide an extended guarantee.


Contingency / Executive SearchA Contingency search may be used for ongoing openings, typically for Sales or Support staffing and the search firm will only collect a fee if they find and place a suitable candidate for the position. The search process is usually less structured and less about a precise candidate “fit” and more about getting potentially qualified candidates in front of the client so that the client can make the final assessment.


Executive Search We work on a contingent or retained basis, and our search begins by identifying relevant executives and professionals in the local area, which means heavy exposure in the local market and thus strong candidates often without relocation. All Executive Search Fees are based on the level of service needed to fit your needs. 1st Aid International continually develops new recruiting strategies, tools and methods to enhance overall recruiting efforts. Recruiting is the core of our business. We make every effort to attract the best candidates available in today’s market and have adopted a unique and multi-faceted approach to recruiting.
