Attracting top talent is crucial to the future of an organization. If an organization wants to get ahead of the competition, then it needs to hire the best talent in the market to help it get there.

But how does one source the best talent? Is there a sure-shot way of getting what you seek? In today’s competitive job market, top talent is not so readily available and you need the help of experts to reach out to them and that expertise is available to you in the form of a professional search firm.

A professional search firm will help you search for and engage with the qualified talent to fill your organization's current or future positions. Do you know that according to recent research, only 36 percent of the current workforce is actively looking for a new opportunity at any given time, but an astonishing 90 percent is willing to talk and learn more.

Engaging with a professional search firm opens up a huge talent pool for organizations, which they didn’t have access to before. This pool contains both passive, and active candidates who otherwise wouldn't apply because they didn’t know about the organization or open opportunities available. It also allows organizations to take control of their pipeline and initiate conversations with the talent they really want to hire.

The cost of a bad hire is manifold. Many organizations use the services of professional search firms to essentially avoid the cost of a bad hire. Professional search firms use a range of personal contacts in their industry, as well as their in-depth knowledge of the industry, to find suitable candidates for their clients. They conduct detailed interviews and then selectively present candidates to their clients.

They also help clients draft accurate and enticing job descriptions to draw in a pool of qualified candidates. Most organizations that decide to use a professional search firm do so because they don't have the internal resources, network, or perhaps even suitable skills to hire themselves. At times, some organizations may even seek their help to hire from competitors indirectly, allowing them to find candidates they might not have been able to find otherwise.

Quite a number of professional search firms also engage with their client organizations for cultural & leadership assessment, strategy deployment, and other talent advisory services. At The Taplow Group, through our professional search, we help you source leaders who can help you transform your organization and scale greater heights.
