Do you know how to hire executive level talent?

Craig Elvin explores the intricacies of the hiring process, sharing valuable insights to help your business grow.

People are widely recognised as the lynchpin to a successful business but its not always easy to bring in top talent. You may not have a lot of turnover in your leadership team, this might be the first time that you are hiring someone at this level for your growing business, or this might be your first appointment as a Managing Director.

Either way you can be forgiven for not being overly experienced at hiring at this level.

Compounding the challenge, a recent poll conducted by Executive Heads showed that 64% of Executives and Senior Hiring Managers have not had formal interview training, let alone designed a hiring process. That means there are a lot of people guessing, fumbling, and hoping to find their way to hiring someone who will have a huge impact on their business.

And hope is not a strategy.
