Our recruiters are highly sensitive to maintaining candidate confidentiality during a search.
We understand the delicate nature of seeking a new opportunity while you are still employed, and are careful to never jeopardize your current position. As a candidate, you will not be presented to clients without your full knowledge and consent beforehand. Clients, in turn, are contractually bound to never pass your information to anyone outside of the search.

The recruiter acts as liaison between the candidate and client. The recruiter also guides candidates through every step of the interview process.
If you are an eligible candidate, we will first educate you on the clients’ needs, expectations, corporate culture, infrastructure/chains of command, and any other relevant information. We’ll review the job description, compensation packages, and answer questions or concerns that arise, to make sure this job fits your needs and lifestyle.
Once you agree to be submitted for a position, we will do so immediately, and we will follow up with the client thereafter. If the client responds with interest, we’ll coordinate meetings and coach you through the interview process. You will never feel alone; recruiters have a vested interest in your success.
