Sherwood Meridian Targets the "50% Reality" of In-House Executive Recruiting

Sherwood Meridian has developed an Executive Hiring Program and Executive Resource Guide to address the critical issue and short comings for hiring senior executives using in-house resources.

Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) April 4, 2005 -- 50% of the time, in-house executive searches may not lead to a long-term hiring success. 50% of the time, in-house staff may not have enough information and insight to assure a professional, personal, and environment fit of the candidates to support a hiring decision. 50% of the time, the in-house executives doing the interviewing may have different understandings of what the company is looking for in a candidate and what is required for the position. 50% of the time, in-house recruiting may not have adequate documentation to support the interview, offering letter, and hiring process to assure a successful hiring event is completed.
      
To support the in-house hiring process Sherwood Meridian has developed an Executive Hiring Workshop that addresses the steps to equip your staff to complete the hiring of a key executive. Steps include: defining the position, compensation, finding and qualifying the right candidate, and completing the hiring process.
      
Included in the Workshop are hiring process recommendations, legal and contractual requirements, review of key documents needed in an executive search, and information on completing a successful hiring process. The goal is to enhance the company's ability to build their executive team.
      
Included in the workshop is the Executive Hiring Guideline. The Guideline links to the material offered in the presentation with added information to support company search processes.
