Thanks to this we have an in-depth understanding of the various skill sets and attributes required from experts in even niche business disciplines and deeply understand the full spectrum of our client's hiring requirements, including both technical skills, soft skills, and candidate personal motivations.
As business consultants, we have the ability to recognize different organizational cultures and understand very well the expectations of representatives of the four generations present in the labor market. We have worked with companies that were in various stages of development and know the challenges of each stage. And yet, in order to objectively assess whether a candidate's skills and attitude fit the current needs of the organization, we use psychometric tools based on machine learning algorithms from the McQuaig Institute, which has been on the market for 50 years.
Based on the data, we are able to state that 96% of the candidates hired based on the i-intro tool will work for at least one year in the organization. That's why we are one of the few to offer a 12-month guarantee on a candidate we hire.
We are fully committed to solving the client's problem and are focused on results rather than just taking action and getting things done. We find managers who achieve great results but are not necessarily well-known in the market. The basis of our work is good research. Why? To find people on the market who have the right experience and the right competencies. It is in our DNA to communicate transparently and support the client in managing the recruitment and negotiation process.
