Search Philosophy

While execution is important, we believe that all successful searches begin with a well-thought-out search strategy.

We complete every assignment that we accept.

We personally handle every step of every search - nothing is "farmed out" or delegated to a more junior staff member - from start to finish on every search.

We move fast and keep costs in line

While we have an extensive database, historically <1% of the candidates that we place come from our database. With very few exceptions, the best candidates are not "on the street."

We are very selective about the clients that we choose to serve, only working with high-values companies. This practice has the additional benefit of naturally limiting our client base and all but eliminating "blockage" issues (by limiting our clients, we limit the number of companies that we are unable to recruit from, therefore increasing our ability to recruit the best candidate for our clients).

Long-term client relationships are our goal. The better we know a client company, the more effective we can be on their behalf. An additional benefit of a close relationship will be that The Whiting Group will require less and less "ramp-up" time on new searches as our knowledge of the client grows.
