The Recruiting Process
Sanford Rose Associates^® - Louisville East uses our proprietary Dimensional Search^® process which sets us apart.  It is a 'multi-dimensional' process that matches:

• The Client’s position and expectations with those of the candidate, such as title, compensation, relocation and amount of travel.
• “Technical” requirements, such as education, relevant industry experience and managerial experience with the candidate’s relevant background and experience.
• Cultural fit of the company with the candidate’s experience and success in similar cultures and/or his likely adaptability to the company’s culture.
• The chemistry between the candidate and hiring manager as well as the candidate’s attributes to the subjective traits required in the Position Profile.
• How “translatable” the candidate’s experiences and capabilities are to the company’s expectations with respect to responsibilities and major projects  Back to Top

Dimensional Search Process

Our recruiting process is conducted through referrals and by contacting people in the work disciplines and businesses where qualified candidates are most likely to be. We do not rely on unsolicited resume flow or blind ads.

The talented people we approach are generally not looking for a new position. Most likely, they have not circulated their resumes, nor are they currently reading help-wanted ads. They are the two-thirds of the qualified workforce who are unreachable except through a custom-recruiting approach. They are, however, people who may be interested in an opportunity when it is brought to their attention in a professional and discreet manner.

Sanford Rose Associates^® - Louisville East recruiting assignments rely on our knowledge of the industries and occupational disciplines in which we recruit and use sophisticated computer technology to manage large amounts of information.

Our inquiries are made in strict confidence, and your company is not identified until a candidate expresses definite interest in the position. If we feel there is a fit, we then take steps to recruit the candidate.  Back to top

Evaluating Candidates
Once we have identified potential candidates, we perform in-depth interviews with each to determine if they meet all client requirements. Additionally we will uncover any personal or family issues that would restrict the candidate's ability to join our client. In evaluating potential candidates, Sanford Rose Associates^® - Louisville East will use our Dimensional Search^® process and:

• Match the candidate's educational, professional and occupational skills to our client's specific job requirements and needs.
• Confirm that the candidate's past experience and successes will effectively contribute to achieving our client's current and future goals.
• Verify that a candidate's personal style will complement the corporate culture and will mesh well with the hiring manager's personality.
• Evaluate the candidate's long-term potential to take on additional responsibilities beyond the current needs. Back to top

Presenting Candidates
As candidates express interest in the opportunity, we evaluate each against the Dimensional Search^® criteria for the open position. We present for interview only those individuals who best fit the assignment pro-file. We will perform preliminary reference checks and education/certification validations prior to presenting the candidate.

After the interview or interviews, we debrief both you and the candidate, then follow up to ascertain the candidate's interest, provide additional information and resolve any misunderstandings. We assist in composing and extending the offer and in negotiating any changes. When needed, we can also provide relocation assistance and cost-of-living comparisons. Once the offer is extended, we stay in constant touch with the candidate and his or her family to resolve remaining issues and facilitate a prompt acceptance and early starting date.  Back to top
