Referral Business

Access Executive Search · August 2, 2022 ·

Access Executive Search is in a referral business: it’s our job to refer candidates that would meet the criteria that our clients have approved during the engagement.

Our valued Clients also understand that ultimately, it’s their responsibility to ensure that our referrals would remain within their organizations.

Once we have done our due diligence in conjunctions with the clients’ satisfaction and approval, we make it clear that it is out of our control on how the referred candidates would perform on a daily basis, and while they are under the management or employment of our clients.

CANDIDATES ARE NOT ROBOTS

As employees, they serve the organizations who employ them. However, those employees have personal lives. Things could happen to anyone such as sickness in the family, the new boss does not get along with the employees or their significant others could be transferred. Some of the reasons are not within their control and could potentially redirect their future career choices and decisions.

Here’s the bottom line: Once the candidates are hired, the clients must create an environment that is conducive to retaining their employees.

The clients must focus on the things they can control and within their prerogative such as open communication, mentorship program, training & development, flexibility in work hours, attractive advancement plans, provide additional incentives and benefits, etc.

In short, it is the clients’ responsibilities to retain and keep their employees by not giving them reasons to look elsewhere.

What Makes us Different?

We network with various professionals on a regular basis with the goal of recognizing and connecting with recruits with proven exceptional abilities in each field.

We spend time and resources to expand our professional connections and database so our clients would have the right talent pool in the sudden event our clients urgently need referrals for their crucial roles.

It is estimated that “A” rated talent only represents less than 10% of professionals who are passively seeking opportunities. At Access Executives, we identify passive candidates through rigorous networking activities and face-to-face meetings while focusing on highly specialized fields of accounting, finance, operations, human resources and Information Tech.

Client Engagement

Access Executive Search · August 2, 2022 ·

At Access Executives, every client engagement is a two-way communication process, while focusing on a personalized interaction and service.

We start the engagement by visiting our clients’ places of business to get a clear understanding of their hiring profile and business objectives.

Why do we do this?

The goal of the client visit is to identify variables that would guide our specialists in qualifying potential candidates. We evaluate the organizational culture, team dynamic, current/future challenges and positive attributes of the position and organization.

The Benefits?

At Access Executives, we believe that every company is unique, and its organization culture cannot be defined by simply reviewing and analyzing the job description.

Most importantly, our well-informed specialists engage the clients for a full briefing on the requirements of the role allowing us to address questions and concerns prior to the search process.

During the in-person discussions, the intention of our specialists is to create hiring criteria with full involvement of all stakeholders. In addition, clear and manageable guidelines will be addressed to eliminate ambiguity while aligning client’s expectations with our search process that cuts turnaround time while saving the client money.

Quick Turnaround

Access Executive Search · July 28, 2022 ·

At Access Executives, we understand that not having key talent in place can put burden on individual’s workload, negatively affect overall team moral, and delay tasks critical to the company’s performance.

Updating our clients on potential candidates, within 24-72 hours of the initial contact, reassures our clients that we place priority on their recruitment and staffing needs.

Our valued clients expect us to answer their questions or concerns within a short period of time if not within few minutes.

AVERAGE INDUSTRY STANDARD

When recruitment firms are inundated with job orders, it becomes a sad reality that responding on a timely manner is not an industry standard.

Typically, recruiters at some firms are overextended when dealing with multiple corporate clients due to high volume of job orders. Naturally, as demands go up, the quality of client services decreases over the course of the engagement.

What Our Clients Expect from Our Executive Recruiters?

At Access Executives, we put special attention to every interaction with our VIP clients. Most of our clients consider Access Executives as a “natural” extension of their operations where they rightfully expect answers without delay and interruptions.

Our Executive Recruiters are trained to respond immediately with minimum lag-time tolerance as we consider our firm to be a crucial part of our clients’ operations.

We strive to putting our clients’ minds at ease by addressing their concerns and questions without long delays.

Vegas Market is Unique

Access Executive Search · July 28, 2022 ·

With the exception of 2020, Vegas’ economic outlook has been promising in the recent years and it took the City almost a decade to get to this point.

DOMINO EFFECT

When there is an economic boom, professionals are more motivated to move around causing a domino effect among highly specialized key positions. Demands go up, while the pool of talent retreats over time.

FAST-TRACK TO YEAR 2022

In 2022, Vegas has seen a record rebound in sales and tourism. The initial challenge in 2021 was the fact that majority of the casino resorts furloughed or laid off many of their employees the year before and a tsunami of tourists came to Las Vegas when things started to open back up.

CANDIDATES ARE DICTATING THE TRAJECTORY OF THEIR CAREERS

To make it more complicated, talent pool in the professional industries decided not to come back to work that caused empty positions for a long period of time.

The demand for talented individuals skyrocketed almost instantaneously. Companies could not keep up with the increase in demand and many operations are spread thin. It is a sad reality that companies are in a talent war fighting for the best of the best.

“A” RATED TALENT

Since we live in Vegas’ unique environment, it is estimated that an “A” rated talent only represents approximately 10% of the professionals that are passively seeking opportunities and for certain specialized positions, it could be much less.

The recent pandemic caused a major havoc in the talent pool market.

First time in its young history, the City of Las Vegas completely shut down and everyone was laid off. This unprecedented fact created a labor disruption in the hiring of talented individuals.

Companies unable to cope with the sudden opening of businesses when professionals moved from one job to another. Corporate recruiters were overwhelmed in the hiring practices while companies who require the best talents had a hard time attracting the right individuals.

Promoting Our Clients

Access Executive Search · July 28, 2022 ·

Our clients appreciate that our specialists become honorary advocate and representative of their respective organizations.

From time to time, our clients would call on our specialists to discuss staffing challenges they encounter within their respective organizations so the specialists can identify potential talent even if the staffing need is not imminent.

WE CONNECT WITH TALENT ON AN ON-GOING BASIS

With minimal urgency and pressure, our specialists would tap on existing list of potential candidates to get a feel on their interest level and how motivated they are to move to another organization.

Our specialists would discreetly represent our clients when they are connecting or networking with potential talent. They would gladly explain our clients’ business growth, opportunities, products, services and upward mobility.

As a valuable benefit, our clients would have opportunities to attract talent that they normally would not be able to attract through normal channels while decreasing the turnover rate in filling an unexpected vacant and critical position.
