Back to the “why” behind working with a specialized recruiter…

We have a strong understanding of the industry, market insights and trends.  We spend every day having meaningful conversations with our industry’s leaders.  We have our fingers on the pulse of the technologies shaping the landscape of the market.  Our role is to match the industry’s top talent to your search requirements.  We strive to understand your specific needs and our vetting process and time to qualify against your specification is extensive.  We earn the trust of the candidates we speak with through demonstrating our level of experience and expertise.  In the end, we deliver a qualified, interested, and motivated candidate.  Our time to present and retention success are industry leading and proven.

We effectively market your company, corporate brand, and opportunity to the candidates we are targeting.  We discuss your market position, company reputation, quality of product/service, and company mission/vision/values.  We will fully understand your company’s employee value proposition and share your story on your unique organizational culture.   Ultimately conveying why a candidate should come work for you. 

We leverage our professional network.  The best candidates likely aren’t looking on job boards or company websites seeking employment.  They’re currently enjoying success and candidly, not actively pursuing a change.  We know the best talent, where to find them, and how to attract them.  We’re experts after all. 

Differentiation.  There’s a lot of “recruiters”.  Some good, many not so much.  Egret Consulting is recognized across the electrical industry as the largest, most professional, and most successful search firm.  In addition, we are one of the most established, founded in 1999.  We have been named to Forbes list of 2023 Best Executive Search Firms for the third time.  Our position in the industry earns us the trust and respect of top talent.  Candidates accept our conversations as they know their time will not be wasted.

If you have open positions that you’re having a difficult time filling or just want to discuss what we are seeing in the industry, schedule a call with me, Colin, or any of our colleagues serving other verticals in the electrical industry…I’m confident that you will enjoy a most productive conversation.
