TalentRISE Launches FlexSEARCH

Recruitment Solutions Firm Brings Flexibility and Predictable Pricing to Retained Search

In response to increasing market demand for greater flexibility, transparency and value, TalentRISE has launched FlexSEARCH, an à la carte menu of strategic services and flexible pricing terms for retained executive search.   

“Our reformulated search offering is designed to help create optimal value at every stage of this critical process by allowing clients to buy our candidate identification expertise; search methodology, tools and insights; and leadership consultation either as a whole, or as distinct components with flexible, predictable pricing,” said Allicia Hahn, TalentRISE Partner, Client Service Operations and Search Leader.  “Simply put, it’s all about enabling clients to find, attract and engage the right senior-level talent in the most efficient and effective way.”

TalentRISE’s FlexSEARCH service continuum includes:

Research and Candidate Development — This service, billed hourly or on a fixed fee basis, is ideal for clients who prefer to execute senior-level recruiting internally, yet require the research, competitive intelligence and name generation capabilities and expertise that TalentRISE has refined and mastered over the years. Deliverables include comprehensive market research, name identification and development of a shortlist/slate of candidates. Typically delivered within 30-45 days.

Talent Attraction and Assessment — A comprehensive retained search service employing a targeted recruiting approach for senior-level executives aimed at high-caliber, hard-to-attract candidates for key positions within the client’s organization on fixed pricing spread across three equal payments.  Fee is based on an agreed percentage of total first-year compensation and is dependant on the complexity of the search. Includes TalentRISE’s exclusive Leader Assimilation Process at no additional cost — the firm’s strategic investment in the longer-term success of the new hire for the client organization.

Leader Assimilation Process — One-on-one professional coaching and consultation to mitigate risks associated with senior-level hires within their first 100 days. This comprehensive leadership onboarding program shortens start-up time, accelerates learning and improves productivity for new executives during those crucial first weeks and months after accepting a new position.  This programmatic consultation is conducted in conjunction with a full retained search engagement at no additional cost to the client or can be delivered independent of a formal search on a fixed-fee basis. TalentRISE leverages a nationwide network of known, trusted leadership coaches to deploy its distinct methodology within a specific time frame involving the new hire, his/her supervisor, peers, HR leadership, the CEO and others with whom core relationships may need to be developed.

Learning goals include:

• Understanding the organization’s objectives
• Adapting to the new culture
• Uncovering hidden social norms
• Learning how to effectively manage both up and down the organization

TalentRISE provides consultative, highly tailored recruitment solutions to meet an organization’s most pressing talent challenges.  Founded in Chicago in 2008 with a national network of specialized talent consultants, the firm serves clients in multiple industries and across all organizational levels from high-growth companies to leading global brands.
