Some of our Partners’ Frequently Asked Questions
We understand that choosing the right talent acquisition partner is an important decision. Let’s de-risk your talent partnership investment with answers to FAQs below.
-
Tired of being passed on to the search team after starting the process with a partner? It feels a little like a help desk experience, doesn’t it? At SSC, each executive search project starts with a dedicated team of highly trained search consultants paired with a member of our leadership panel to support your project until your new hire’s first day. From start to finish, the entire process is transparent. From weekly briefing sessions to offer negotiations, the same team will support you throughout the entire project.
-
Quality versus quantity. At SSC, we’re all about quality. Our boutique executive search firm only takes on a select number of projects at any given time. Taking this approach allows us to ensure your project receives the time and dedication required for the best possible result. Our 100% placement success is no accident.
-
On average, we fill searches in less than 60 days, beating the industry average. Our model offers the flexibility to compress timelines and accommodate urgent needs.

-
In the past, our team has accommodated as many as 60 hires for a F500 corporation building a new division. Being a boutique executive search firm, we have the ability to customize solutions. Contrary to some executive search firms, we don’t take the one size fits all approach.
-
We can either take a collaborative or divide-and-conquer approach. In past projects, we’ve operated as an extension of a company’s talent acquisition team, working together. In most cases, the internal team prefers to delegate the entire process to our firm, allowing them to focus on their day to day HR related tasks. We come in for the niche, critical, executive placements that are often too time consuming for internal teams.
