Statistics for 2011

Executive Job Market only

Executive level:  Director, VP, C-Level

Compensation: $200,000.00 – $2.9 Million

Covering 22 separate industry disciplines

 2011- 82% placed (27 total placements)

 We had a very good year in the PE space with 11 placements, mostly with Gores and Blackstone portfolio managers.

 We find real jobs in these 3 verticals:

1. 1) The retained executive recruiters network (also known as the hidden job market)
2. 2) PE/VC space
3. 3) Other (boards, our placed network, referrals)

 We set up and executed hiring manager interviews for 100% of our clients in 2011

 The biggest change we made in our system was to focus on the candidate presentation—this included our proprietary executive profile and 2 other documents which allowed our candidates a free pass through most HR screenings directly into the hiring manager.

A single job posting of $200K yields approximately 750 resumes the first 2 days and over 2,000 the next 5 days
