The 9-Step Essence Recruitment Process
We take a focused and personalized approach to finding the right candidates who fit your needs and align with your company culture. Our recruitment process is more than just filling a role—it’s about finding the right fit for your team with our targeted search process.
We’re with you every step of the way, from the initial search and interviews to psychometric assessments and reference checks. We even help with offer negotiations and onboarding, ensuring your new hire is set up for lasting success.
Here’s how it works:
1. Gathering information
We start by meeting with all stakeholders to ensure we have a thorough understanding of the position you’re filling and how we can help you meet your objectives.
2. Creating detailed position profiles
Based on the information we’ve gathered, we create a detailed job description, a compelling job advertisement, and a profile of the candidate who is qualified for the position and would be a great fit for your organization.
3. Finding candidates
4. Identifying qualified candidates
Our 2-step screening process is the secret to our success. We don’t just focus on what candidates can do, we also look at who they are to ensure they will be a good fit in the culture of your organization.
5. Interviewing candidates
We help you develop an interview process that will work for your organization and we support you throughout the process.
6. Administering aptitude, personality, and behaviour assessments
While resumés and interviews can tell you a lot about an individual, psychometric assessments can help you get a better picture of a candidate’s abilities and an expectation of how they might react in various work scenarios. Armed with this information, you can make a more informed recruitment decision.
7. Conducting reference checks
Once you’ve identified candidates you might like to hire, we’ll conduct extensive reference checks.
8. Negotiating the offer
We support this process by navigating expectations, bringing forward market standards, and ensuring you have all the tools to provide a competitive offer to convince your preferred candidate to accept the position.
9. Providing transition and on-boarding support
For your new employee to be successful over the long term, on-boarding is necessary. We can provide tools, procedures, and guidelines to help your new hire get up to speed quickly and begin contributing to your organization’s success.
