FAQs

How does Execu|Search differ from a job board?

A job board is a site that passively connects job seekers with employers. While an employer posts an ad and waits for resumes to come in, job seekers apply to jobs that are relevant to them – having to compete with hundreds of other submissions.

Execu|Search, on the other hand, can provide you with a more proactive approach to finding your next opportunity. Employers contact us directly and request our help to find the right person for a role within their firm. Based on the information we gather, we may post an ad on their behalf to source new candidates for the role, or reach out to our pipeline of candidates who may not have applied to the role on their own, but would be a good fit.

This gives job seekers several advantages over a job board. First, every resume we receive is reviewed and evaluated to determine whether the individual’s skills would be a good match for any of our available positions. This gives you the opportunity to have your talents considered not just for the job for which you are applying, but for the hundreds of other jobs we are working to fill – ultimately giving you more opportunities to choose from. Should you be a match for any of our positions, a recruiter will guide you through the entire hiring process. From interview prep to helping you transition into a new role, they’ll be there for every step of the way!

Are your jobs real?

Absolutely. Every day, we publish new opportunities and remove any jobs that have been filled – ensuring all the jobs you see on our site are 100% legitimate. We also have confidential opportunities that do not get posted to our website. To be considered for them, please submit your resume.

Does Execu|Search have exclusive jobs?

Yes, we have many opportunities that you won't see on job boards, or find through other recruiting firms and corporate websites.

The best way to ensure that you are considered for all of our opportunities, including these exclusive searches, is to submit your resume. Once we have your resume, we will evaluate your skills against all of our available positions and contact you if we think you might be a match.

Why should I submit my resume or apply to a job?

Increasing your chances of finding a good match: Once your resume is in our database, we can evaluate your skills and background against many jobs – not just the one job you may have applied to on our website. This increases your chances of being connected with an opportunity that you may have not been aware of, but you would be a good fit for.

Ensuring you are considered for exclusive opportunities: We have many jobs that are exclusive to our firm and may not be found online. By submitting your resume, you can ensure that you are considered for these unique opportunities.

Finding the right fit for you: Our recruiters are industry-specific specialists who have personal knowledge of our clients’ preferences regarding a candidate’s background, skills, and personality. By getting to know who you are and what you are looking for in your next opportunity, we will only connect you with the companies that are the right fit for you and your long-term career goals.

Receiving personalized advice: Our recruiters can provide you with feedback on your resume, interview performance, and other job search best practices to ensure you have the tools you need to find success at the end of the process. You can see some of this insight on our blog.

How quickly will I be sent out on interviews?

After we determine you are a fit for a role, we will first contact you to come into our office for an initial meeting where your recruiter will assess your background and get to know you better. Based on this first meeting, your recruiter will start setting you up with interviews for jobs that match your background. Depending on the position and client, timing can vary.

I’ve submitted my resume several times, but have never heard back. Why?

If you have never received a response from us, it is most likely because we do not have a job that matches your background. If that changes, we will be in touch!
