Specialized knowledge of accounting and finance skills and departmental functions: |
Recruiting generalists are great if you’re an HR professional looking to fill positions in 15 different departments, not if you’re a Controller or CFO trying to find a Manager of SEC Reporting or a VP of Strategic Planning. We spend 100% of our time performing financial and accounting searches, which gives us an expertise and an understanding of changes in the field. |
| Real-time local market information: |
| Salary surveys are visually appealing, but they are usually obsolete within months, if not weeks of their printing, and are oftentimes too general to provide useful information for your organization. Where can you get up-to-the minute information on the Metropolitan DC market?
We speak to hundreds of accounting and financial professionals every week, enabling us to process information immediately for the use of our clients: trends in compensation, hiring, organizational development, compliance, and general news. We know the companies and the people of the DC Metro region. If we don’t know something, we know where to go for it. |
| Referral based search: |
| Looking for candidates off of job posting boards? Don’t look here!
We are executive recruiters who do just that: recruit…both active and passive candidates who are top performers in their field. Where do we find these people? We have a network of accounting and financial professionals developed through years of recruiting in this area. We spend 10+ hours each day talking and meeting with people in our niche. And, we keep your company information confidential by only discussing your open role with candidates who have gone through our pre-screening process. |
| Thoroughness of process, preparation, execution: |
| Enjoy pouring through stacks of resumes from your recruiter or your HR department? If so, we may not be for you.
