What Every Employee Should Know About Retained
Executive Search - WalkWater Talent Advisors
The common term used for companies who help hire
candidates for a company is recruiters. But,
this is a term that encompasses a wide range of
different types of recruiters. Each talent
acquisition professional has a different
discipline and a different methodology involved
to bring out the results. One of the most
beneficial types of recruiters you can hire is a
retained executive search agency, one that is
retained on an exclusive basis to recruit the
best candidate for a specific position on behalf
of a specific client. The service is delivered
through extensive research designed to identify
all the potential candidates for the role, and
appoint the best possible fit for the same.
As an employee or owner of a business, you may
want to hire such a partner to bring to you the
best candidates to work within your
2
organization. But, investing in such a firm may
bring many doubts in your mind and that is
absolutely natural. Understanding your frame of
mind, a list of such questions has been listed in
this blog, trying to clear all such doubts, so
that you can partner with a retained executive
search agency without any hesitation. What
advantage can be achieved by hiring a retained
executive search firm? Any business owner,
whenever plans on taking any new step, will
first and foremost check for the advantages that
can be achieved. Same is the case when
considering to hire a retained executive search
firm. After all, such a firm will ask for an
upfront fee, unlike a contingent recruiter who
asks for the entire fee only after the placement
is done. But, one thing to understand is that a
contingent recruiter is only concerned with
finding a candidate and placing him in your
organization, without worrying about the latter
part of checking if the candidate placement has
proven successful for the organization or not.
They just fill in the jobs as soon as possible
and move on, without taking the time to
understand your business or your goals to find a
good fit. There is no loyalty to the client for a
long term. A retained executive search firm, on
the contrary, will first learn about your
business, your culture, your competitive
landscape, and your goals. Based on this
understanding, the firm focuses on solving the
companys challenges, and finds candidates who
can help move the company towards its goals in
the future. Thus, you can be sure to have the
right talent introduced to your organization.

Why commit to an agreement with only a single
retained executive search firm? One logical
point you may have in mind is that you hire
multiple recruiters to work on searching for the
right candidates, because the more recruiters
you hire, the better your result will be. But, in
reality, this may not be true! Using multiple
search professionals for a single position can
cause more problems than solutions. This is
because with multiple professionals hired, you
will be setting them in competition with one
another, making their focus concentrate on how
fast they can provide you with a candidate,
rather than the quality of the candidate they
should be bringing to you. This may bring to you
a list of multiple candidates, but no viable
talents. What if the candidate doesnt work out
for the company? A retained executive search firm
will likely bring to you only the best and most
relevant candidate after going through all the
research they have done about your business and
your goals. Nevertheless, just in case, the
candidate doesnt work out for the company, what
do you do then? So here, you must understand that
with contingent recruiters, you are paying for
each executive candidate, but with a retained
executive search firm, you are paying for a
methodology that results in an executive
candidate, and a process improvement that can be
utilized time and again. Moreover, all sorts of
time and headaches can be saved by avoiding
pitfalls and delays associated with contingent
search. Thus, partnering with a retained
executive search firm is an investment, not an
expense. If you have been till date
looking at procuring top executive

candidates for your organization as a cost, it is
because you havent been hiring the right
people. But, working with a retained executive
search firm can turn that around effectively.

executive search firms in India whose effective
practices have brought successful outcomes for
every client till date, building a trust for a
differentiated and refreshing approach to their
