Hiring for an executive position can be an arduous process for an organization. Even with an internal HR team, the complexities of an executive search can make it challenging to gain momentum or dedicate the time needed to find the right leader. That is why Mulberry Executive Search is here to streamline the process and take the stress out of finding executive talent.
The Benefit of Working With an Executive Search Agency
Partnering with an Executive Search Agency has many benefits, from decreasing the average amount of time it takes to fill a role to making it easier to reach passive candidates.
Saving Your Team Time: The average time to fill an executive role is 3-6 months, nearly twice the length of the average non-executive search. An Executive Search Agency can significantly reduce hiring time by proactively connecting with passive leadership talent using a range of strategic sourcing methods we invest in. These valuable investments are not always available to non-agencies. We work alongside your internal team, handling the heavy lifting so the search moves faster while your team stays focused on other priorities.
Access to a Robust Candidate Network: Most highly sought-after leaders are passive talent who aren’t actively dedicating time to a job search. Utilizing an Executive Search Agency gains you access to these hard-to-reach candidates. Our extensive national network of active and passive executive candidates profoundly expands your reach, opening you up to a broader range of individuals to find the best fit for your organization.
Up-to-date Knowledge and Perspectives: While most organizations only have to conduct an executive search every three to four years, an agency engages with leaders daily. We offer a fresh perspective and insights to ensure that your search aligns with the current state of the ever-changing market.
Confidential Searches: Protecting strategic initiatives and company changes may be vital to eliminate potential organizational disruption. An Executive Search Agency can discreetly source passive candidates and post your position anonymously, maintaining confidentiality.
Streamlined Process for You and Candidates: With a single point of contact and a structured screening and interview process, partnering with an Executive Search Agency eliminates miscommunication and the frustration of managing multiple touchpoints. We provide a white-glove experience for you and candidates, ensuring everyone has seamless access to the information they need – laying the foundation for a successful transition into your organization.
