| Our services are customarily tailored to
the needs of our clients and the nature of each search. These services
are provided on both a contingency and retained basis. Contingency or
retainer, we prefer providing services on an exclusive basis.
Exclusivity allows us the ability to present the client company to the
community in the most impressive way, selectively; and to monitor the
candidate group, presenting a wide variety of backgrounds and personalities.
Exclusivity also ensures our clients that their search is our top priority.
Berger and Leff is dedicated to providing expert, confidential, expedient
services; exactly what we would expect if we were in your place. We operate
with the underlying conviction that our success is predicated upon the
satisfaction of both our clients and our candidates.
We personally meet all new clients to discuss their search in detail.
When needed, we assist with the formulation of the position, as with a
start-up department, and job description. We recommend the best way to
present the opportunity to the appropriate candidates. We discuss the
title, salary, job duties, promotional opportunities, company culture
and desired background of the candidates. We verify that the position
is within the appropriate market range in order to attract the best technical
talent. At the end of the meeting, depending on the individual search,
we recommend to our clients doing the search on either a retained or contingency
basis.
We begin the search process by doing extensive research along with the
assistance of our database to identify the most qualified candidates for
the position. We contact the candidates directly and present the opportunity
to them, furnishing the details of the position, the department and why
we feel the position may be a good move for them.
We personally conduct face to face interviews and reference check all
interested candidates before presenting them to our clients.
After our clients have interviewed the candidates we discuss the results
and help in the selection process. In most cases, unless the client prefers,
we extend the offers and do all the salary negotiations. Once an offer
is accepted, we provide resignation and counter offer counseling to the
candidate and stay in close touch until they begin the new position. We
do both client and candidate follow up one month from the start date and
keep in touch during the course of their careers. We consider all our
relationships long term.
