Retained Searches  |  Contingency Searches  |  Assistance with HR-related functions  |  Policies

Retained Searches
For higher-level positions, a retained search is generally the way to go. This means you're specifically hiring us to fill the position for you. And, we're guaranteeing that we'll find you the right person for the position. The major benefit of a retained search is that we're working for you, the client. This type of arrangement is much more focused on your company's needs, which often makes for a better placement at higher, more critical levels. Our fee is 30% of the base salary (or 20-25% of the base salary for clients of Case | Sabatini or CSD Financial). Because we will have increased expenses for this type of work, payment is generally 30% of our expected fee up front, another 30% in 30 days, and the balance upon placement. (However, much of this arrangement is negotiable, considering the often sensitive nature of this work.)

Contingency Searches
For lower to mid-level replacements, many clients prefer contingency searches.  Under this scenario, we bill you only after our candidate accepts an offer from you. Our fee is 30% of the base salary (or 25% of the base salary for any clients of Case | Sabatini or CSD Financial). Payment in full is due upon placement.

Assistance with HR-related Functions
We can provide assistance in writing policies and procedures manuals, job descriptions, and other HR-related work. We also have considerable experience in developing in-house intranet systems to effectively share HR policies (and other information) with employees.

What We Generally Want to Know When Working with You
In order to best serve you, we generally like to sit down with you to discuss your company and your needs.  We like to begin by discussing your company itself:  Where are you at now?  Where are you going?  What's the culture like there?  Beyond those things, we certainly need to cover the basics as well:  What position(s) would you like us to fill? What's the job description? The educational and experience requirements necessary to fill this role? The expected salary range?  The history of the position? The reason the previous person (if any) left? As the saying goes, "Help us help you."

Important Policies for Employers to Know:

  • We always provide the most accurate information known about job candidates. We will also never withhold information essential to the hiring decision.
  • We only refer candidates we believe fit your needs particularly well.
  • Confidential company information shared with us stays confidential.
  • We will always discuss our fees and other important policies prior to offering candidates to a company.
  • We will never recruit any employees away from a Case | Sabatini or CSD Financial client unless the management of such company indicates that our involvement is acceptable.
  • We will not re-recruit a candidate we have placed in your company while he or she remains with your company.
  • Our candidates are well-vetted. We verify education and employment history, check references, and conduct additional background research.
  • We base our fees on the candidate's base salary only, not the total compensation.
  • Our guarantee:  If the placement does not work out for any reason within 60 days, we will find you a replacement at no cost.
