The art of negotiation, a strength of Recruscope
Recruscope relies on an approach based on listening, understanding business challenges, and the art of negotiation. This expertise can make all the difference in an executive recruitment process, especially when it comes to attracting leaders with the required skills and leadership.
We also know that great candidates often already hold great positions.
Negotiating an attractive offer, identifying the detail that makes the difference, and establishing a quality conversation, this is often what makes it possible to attract the most sought-after profiles. Recruscope anticipates your needs and works methodically, step by step, to deliver concrete results.
We speak with high-potential candidates, we meet them, and we listen to them. We present your reality accurately and bring theirs back to you, without filters. This direct and rigorous approach reduces the risk of a bad hire and the costs that come with it.
Once again, three perspectives brought together into one.
A rigorous methodology
Our recruitment services are delivered through five structured stages, the duration of which varies depending on the nature and complexity of the mandate. At every stage, we remain accessible, transparent, and diligent.
Complex, technical, or highly specialized roles represent a true strategic challenge for us. Every mandate entrusted to Recruscope is based on a direct approach and includes the following five stages:
1. Analysis and meeting
We conduct an in-depth analysis of your needs in close collaboration with your HR team and the relevant manager. This initial meeting allows us to precisely define the mandate, the responsibilities of the position to be filled, as well as the desired profile, both in terms of skills and leadership.
2. 360 search
We take action by leveraging our networks, industry expertise, and qualified talent databases. We also use relevant platforms, including LinkedIn, to identify and approach candidates who best match the requirements of the mandate.
3. Direct outreach to candidates
We directly contact targeted candidates, including those currently employed, to assess their interest and openness to a new opportunity. An initial phone interview is conducted with the most relevant profiles, followed by an in-depth meeting with candidates who demonstrate the strongest strategic alignment.
4. Personalized approach with the employer
We present, according to your preference, a verbal or written report on the candidates selected for interviews, so you have all relevant information before meeting them. We also coordinate interviews and support you through to the final hiring decision, including salary expectations, role clarification, and employment conditions.
5. Regular follow-ups throughout the hiring process
We provide a weekly activity report on the progress of the mandate and remain available to adjust the strategy as needed. Regular follow-ups are conducted to ensure smooth communication and a well-managed recruitment process at every stage.
