Focus365® Methodology -based executive search
More than a search, more than a database. Focus365® is a live circuit for hot talent—a living pipeline of merit based, vetted talent.
Our confidential methodology, identifies, attracts and maintains a specific number of candidates per recruitment pool—enabling your organization to engage and build a Smart Workforce over a one‑ or two‑year engagement. It’s ideal for filling the same role across multiple subsidiaries or field operations, and it helps you create and nurture a robust talent community prepared for future growth that drives long‑term organizational success.
Using Focus365®, we work closely with you to determine the precise qualifications your role demands—from academic background and experience to personality, leadership style, and professional network. Then, we cast a wide net to source and vet candidates that meet your criteria precisely. We deliver this hire‑ready pool through masked profiles that remove subjective bias, empowering you to make objective, performance‑driven hiring decisions.
Pool members give the Focus365 approach high marks because it moves them from passive to active participants in their career growth. They get to know you—and you get comprehensive insight into their skills and approach. The result is a faster, smoother, more satisfactory hiring process.
