Quality Recruiting. Established Experts.
Our Proven Methodology
Filling a key position requires focused research, an organized approach and a systematic search process. We invest the time to understand your company, your values and your business goals. We work with you to clarify your objectives and your job specifications. We know that candidates who thrive in one company may not necessarily thrive in another so we make sure that we have a feel for the character and culture of your organization.
If you are expecting too much and offering too little, we tell you before it’s too late. If it appears to us that the solution to your problem is not just a new employee but a redefinition of the existing position, we tell you that too.
In the course of asking and listening, we develop a partnership with you, and we design a targeted plan for your project.
Planning and research
We begin by defining the scope of the project and creating a profile of the position to be filled. Using client competitor information, our industry sources and confidential referrals, we conduct thorough research to uncover potential candidates.
Candidate contact
Once candidates are identified, we make contact with them on a direct, personal basis. We become your spokesperson, presenting your objectives and your opportunity. At the same time, we examine the qualifications of each candidate against the comprehensive profiles developed during the planning stage. Only when a strong mutual interest is determined does the process continue.
Presentation of candidates
Only the most qualified candidates are presented for your consideration. We also assist you in scheduling and monitoring the interview process with your management team.
The decision and the offer
While you alone make the decision on the best candidate for your organization, we assist you during this critical stage by facilitating communications on compensation, relocation and benefits. We also assist the candidate through the emotional process of resigning the present position, including dealing with counteroffers.
Ongoing relationship
Our goal is to provide you with people who contribute to your company’s goals and make a real difference to your organization. At the Fairway Consulting Group we do not consider a search successful unless this goal has been accomplished.

We used to work with a lot of agencies at one time and we now only work with a few select "preferred" agencies... I will be highly recommending Jan for a future retained search, as well as any contingent searches, that we have open in the future.
