HeadHunters NW is an executive talent acquisition firm specializing in Accounting and Finance.

We actively pursue sophisticated professionals at the Management, Senior, and executive Levels across all industries through our vast network, database, and referrals.

HeadHunters NW provides personalized quality services to reflect and complement your individual management style and company culture. You will not see our client’s job postings replicated on the numerous job boards. We function as a traditional headhunting service and not a resume house.

It takes industry insight, research, skill and intuition to reach qualified prospects who will consider a new opportunity.

In today’s labor market there are no short cuts to attracting and securing top quality candidates. Those companies and recruiters who rely on shortcuts, such as job boards, to obtain that “perfect fit”, are only wasting valuable time.

MISSION

Headhunters NW’s mission is to deliver the best talent to you through consistent high quality, personalized search execution in an efficient and timely manner.

Our Team

Our HeadHunters have worked for International, National, Regional and Local clients. Our experience spans many industries and company sizes. Our HeadHunters are focused, like a laser, finding those candidate attributes that fit your company’s expressed needs and culture.

The crux of what we offer is a dedicated team for your company’s hiring needs. Headhunters NW’s recruiters are not bogged down with the administrative functions of Human Resources or other hiring departments. A dedicated team of professionals will focus their attention only on your search. This focus and dedication will provide a results driven process with the assurance of qualified candidates for your review.

"Big firm" resources integrated with "boutique firm" service thereby delivering thorough, high quality service and a search customized to suit your needs.

What benefits are derived? Is more money really saved by this action? The answer is most definitely "Yes".

An enormous amount of your time can be spent sorting and reviewing résumés, and let's face it you can be doing something else where your time is better allocated.

Résumés are not the best measuring stick by which to gauge candidates and their qualifications. HeadHunters NW pre-screens, qualifies, and presents only those candidates who meet specific requirements, allowing you to avoid many hours interviewing unqualified candidates.

- Placing an ad in the newspaper can be expensive. You may be fortunate enough to attract an abundance of résumés; rarely does an ad attract quality candidates.

- Money is lost due to vacant positions because of "non-production".

- Most clients seek confidentiality because the competition could capitalize on that weakness. Our searches are conducted in the manner you request.

- Institutions that openly recruit from a competitor leave themselves open to legal action. There are times when a client will direct us to a specific candidate they would like us to contact on their behalf.

There is intense competition for good candidates. Letting them slip away ends up to be very time consuming and expensive for the company.

If there is an interest in a candidate, hiring authorities should make every effort to interview them as soon as possible. If there is a continued interest, immediately schedule a second interview.

Problems arise when hiring authorities do not act promptly when first introduced to candidates either via phone, email or resume.

Top talent will not be in the market for very long. If the hiring authority "drags his or her feet" on qualified candidates, they are losing money by not filling the position promptly, the best candidates are usually hired first and will no longer be available.

It is no longer a given that a candidate who accepts a job will actually show up for work. As talent acquisition specialists we are constantly selling the "sizzle" to our candidates in regards to the career benefits of joining a new company.

The executive search process is not a one-way street. There are a number of things you can do to facilitate the process and advance your standing.

Contact HeadHunters NW at least 6 months prior to beginning your job search. Even if you have no intention of ditching your job, interview with HeadHunters NW. Circumstances change-downsizing, re-organization, clash with new boss, and so on…..

If your resume, is faxed, mailed, e-mailed, or carrier-pidgeoned to a company, it often becomes lost or overlooked in an enormous stack of papers on some manager's desk.
HeadHunters NW can put you in touch with immediate openings as well as opportunities arising later when you may be looking more passively. We are the eyes and ears that alert you when those coveted positions come available.

Our insight into the mind and culture of an organization goes beyond company history and products/services, which you can research yourself on the Internet. While corporate research is valuable, our headhunters are privy to the employer's human element-especially the people with whom you will interview. At the end of the day, this factor is often the clincher for success in the hiring process.

Be genuine about your interest (or lack of) in the position. Complete and accurate disclosure by you is an essential element in the search process.

Be flexible. Make every effort to fit appointments and interviews within your schedule.

Educate yourself. Conduct your own due diligence on the client and understand their unique value.

Negotiate in good faith. Do not lead us to believe you are negotiating only with our client if you are considering offers from more than one organization.
