Process

Raynak Executive Search Process

Clients of Laura always hire people that she already knows or has rigorously vetted.  Her recruiting method is an applied science that has been refined by over two decades of “in the trenches” experience that involves engagement, intelligent selection, and results.

Engagement

We practice the art of romance as it pertains to executive search, selection and hiring. Laura has the confidence and integrity to approach anyone and earn their respect, trust, and friendship. She takes the time to listen and get to know everyone in our large and ever-expanding network. Laura conducts business with honesty and transparency, and produces win-win results.

Intelligent Selection

We understand the science of recruitment; Laura begins by gaining an in-depth understanding of your goals and objectives. She then uses what we call an “innerview,” an assessment we developed that identities the motivations, attributes, and abilities of carefully selected candidates.  This enables us to present you with only highly qualified candidates that will also perform extraordinarily well in your company.

Results

We build consensus among the interview team at every step of our process in order to conduct a swift and successful search. Laura’s ability to build consensus among individuals who may have conflicting views or objectives is one of her greatest strengths. The effectiveness of our process is reflected in our closing ratio of 100%.
