Search Process   |


Because our counselors have been in the banking profession, they have an insiders understanding of the open position and its requirements, both tangible and intangible. This provides better insight into what experience and personal attributes a candidate must possess to successful fill it. With our client’s specific cultural and business objectives defined, APC Executive Search then matches the right candidate for the position.

These are the steps we take to ensure the best outcome.

Research.
APC Executive Search has maintained and updated an extensive knowledge base of candidates who possess skills that place them at the top of the banking profession. It is our long-term and trusted relationship with a candidate that affords us an open dialogue and keeps the candidate receptive and motivated to our recommendations. In many cases, by the time we get a search assignment we have already identified a potential candidate.

Due diligence.
At APC Executive Search we make every effort to pre-qualify a candidate before suggesting an opportunity for career advancement. Both the client and the candidate deserve the utmost professionalism and we deliver that without compromise. We do a disservice to candidate and client if we are not clear, concise and honest.

Collaboration.
Collaboration produces the identification of at least one or in some cases several candidates all of which may posses a unique combination of skills suited for the open position. As former industry participants, our search consultants can offer many insights into our candidates. We provide an objective consultation of each candidate being considered and work in partnership with the clients hiring manager to reach a decision void of emotion.

Evaluation.
Only after APC Executive Search personnel has completed the due diligence process is a candidate recommended to our client. At that time, we give the client our evaluation and impressions of the candidate and discuss how and why we think the candidate will successfully fit into their organization.

Negotiations.
Working out the details culminates the final negotiation. On our clients’ behalf, we attempt to remove the emotion from every decision making process and replace it with pure facts about the candidate. For the candidate, making a career decision is oftentimes emotional. Our role is to act as impartial advisor on both sides of the equation to bring the process to a successful conclusion
