When TalentFoot engages in a new search, we begin by getting to know our hiring team. It is essential
that we learn about the leadership team, culture and history, and understand the business objectives of
your company.

Step 2: Position Profile  
Building a comprehensive and detailed position profile is a critical piece of a successful search.
TalentFoot conducts structured discussions with decision makers and hiring managers to evaluate their
needs and develop a complete overview of the position. This 1-2 page document will include everything
from specific qualifications, the necessary skill-set based on key business objectives, and day-to-day
responsibilities.

Step 3: Research  
TalentFoot commits a lead search strategist, candidate development manager and a dedicated research
team to every search assignment. A careful analysis of the company, industry, competitors, and
marketplace guides the search strategy. TalentFoot then builds a comprehensive target list to channel
the sourcing process and pursue top talent.

Step 4: Candidate Evaluation  
Using behavioral and performance-based assessments, your lead search strategist qualifies candidates
based on job skills and necessary experience. Additionally, TalentFoot has structured retention-variable
and social intelligence assessment resources to ensure that top contenders have both the sticking
power and people skills necessary to leverage their abilities long-term in client organizations. The
evaluation process culminates with a final candidate pool consisting of the top 10% of qualified
candidates.

Step 5: Presentation  
Select candidates from the final candidate pool will be presented to your hiring team. The presentation
will include a resume and detailed summary for each finalist. The summary will include: an explanation
for career moves; specific reasons as to why this candidate fits your needs; compensation expectations;

and their availability to interview.

Step 6: Reference Check  
Careful attention is given to conducting detailed reference checks with previous supervisors and direct
reports. A comprehensive summary is provided to the hiring team.

Step 7: Negotiation  
TalentFoot works to ensure all negotiations go smoothly as we are a helpful intermediary throughout the
entire, and often sensitive, hiring process.

Step 8: Retention Call  
Post-hire integration and long-term retention are key components of all successful hires. TalentFoot
maintains consistent contact with placed candidates and their employers to ensure a smooth transition
and fluid integration process.
