ETHAN PARTNERS
How we work
Our method builds on the core principle of getting the best candidate for the job and not just the best available candidate. We use selection and attraction exclusively focused on top performers who are not looking for a new job. Therefore, they can be extremely hard to reach and get into consideration. No one else does that with the same precision, speed and success as we do.
We come from commercial backgrounds and put a lot of effort into understanding our clients, what they want to achieve with the role they are looking for and what the right hire needs to accomplish. We conduct thorough market research to understand any potential candidates across geographies and backgrounds and establish the right talent pool.
We understand that recruiting is often highly time sensitive to our clients and therefore we are accessible, work very intensely and have short turnaround times.

Phase 1
We conduct background research on your company and industry to understand what you do and understand the context you operate in.
We study the job description thoroughly to understand exactly what the role entails.
We conduct a kick-off meeting where we go over details about the company, strategy, organization, role responsibilities, role requirements, interview process etc. We insist on being thorough in this, as that must get a complete understanding of the company, organization, culture, role and expectations for performance. We also challenge you on any relevant points to be as precise as possible on finding the right profile as well as advising you on the ideal interview process for the given role.
Afterwards, we create a search strategy, we make any relevant changes to the job description and we find sample profiles that we can use as concrete examples to calibrate and align expectations.
We conduct a followup meeting to get feedback on the search strategy, job description and sample profiles to make sure that we are completely aligned.
