SERVICES  

"Trendsetters" offers three kinds of personnel services to Clients. There are executive search, proactive recruitment and personnel assessment. Each service is applied depending on the specific needs and goals set up by our Client.

Executive search

Executive search is used to find and attract key managers and professional to the organization. Candidates search is done directly (without publishing job ads in media) and is focused on reaching specific targets. There are many factors like Client's company culture, management style and personality of direct supervisor that are taken into consideration. In-depth analysis of candidates business and personal qualities is always done when executive search is applied. Executive search is the most effective approach to find key personnel. It takes more efforts and requires high professional skills of a headhunter. The investment is usually higher than in traditional recruitment but it is definitely worth of end results.

In the beginning of its existence executive search was used primarily to find top managers for big international companies. Current labor market situation makes executive search a necessary tool to find and recruit professionals both of middle and top level! Main benefit Clients get of executive search is that it gives close to 100% probability of finding and selecting of necessary candidate. Success depends a lot on the professional skills of headhunter. Being different from many recruiters that sell top managers and professionals from their own data base, we look for a candidate who is able to bring the solution and achieve specific targets or our Client sets forth. Our executive search process does not focus on formal criteria to candidates but we select professionals who increase company's turnover, open representative office or able to start selling new products or services of your company.

Proactive recruitment

* Pro-active: controlling a situation by causing something to happen rather than waiting to respond to it after it happens

Proactive recruitment approach is effective when looking for such positions like sales representative, IT specialists, accountants, engineers etc. Applying this technology we use various sources of information about candidates. There are data bases, job ads in newspapers and on internet. Though, our main advantage in comparison to other recruiters in Latvia is that we include direct search of candidates in our recruiting process. We ACTIVELY go to candidates not waiting while they maybe see the job ad and maybe send us their CV. Probability that the candidate you need sees your job ad and applies to the position, is pretty low. We are sure no company is interested to waste hundreds or sometimes even thousands of lats or euros for job ads and to receive CVs of candidates that do not fit the position. Looking for personnel daily consultants of Trendsetters have valuable information about labor market in general as well as specific areas of business. This information helps us to save time and money of our Clients when they use our personnel search and selection services. We strongly believe that experience and knowledge of Trendsetters will help you to recruit employees that will develop your business and increase its profitability.

Proactive recruitment allows successful finding of employees for performing specific tasks and functions. Compensation level of employees found using proactive recruitment technology is in the range between LVL 300 to 1000 (EUR 450 - 1500). If looking for the employee with higher remuneration package it is wise to use executive search approach.
