To best suit your needs, Kunimune & Associates offers interim consulting and services.
Engaged Model
Used primarily when a search is time sensitive, more senior level and/or critical to the organization. Often used when circumstances are less than optimal *(hard to find, merger, damaged reputation or morale) There is a higher level of commitment to a successful outcome. An upfront engagement fee for service is expected at the beginning of the search and the search is done on an exclusive basis.
- Guarantees the presentation of qualified candidates in a set time frame.
- Consultant meets with the client. A job profile is built to include a SWOT analysis and cultural fit assessment.
- Targeted candidates have demonstrated industry or skill set expertise and when approached were not necessarily job hunting.
- Consultant “promotes and sells” the opportunity, engages perspective applicant
- Consistent progress and documentation provided
- Client and search firm are both committed to successful outcome and dialog often.
- The consultant stays in touch with the new hire and client, “monitoring” placement.
- Guarantees for replacement are documented.
Contingency Model
Most useful when employer has a strong interviewing/HR team to manage multiple firms and the ability to screen candidates. It also works well if an employer has continual needs for a particular position and will hire when candidates become available. The search is not urgent. Usually low to mid management career level job- not necessarily mission critical to organization.
- As your search is not usually time sensitive, you may work with multiple recruiting sources that generally source from existing databases of available talent.
- Since the job is not confidential, unsolicited resumes apply and should be managed.
- Minimal process designed to generate multiple candidate resumes quickly with little documentation.
- The fee is contingent and paid to the search firm upon the successful placement of a submitted candidate.
- Guarantees for replacement are negotiable 30-60-90 days
