Acquiring Competencies:
A Systematic Process

Our approach for recruiting top performers follows a tried-and-tested system revolving around the Triple S™ method. The typical stages of this recruiting process are as follows:

1. Search preparation

  • Competency-based requirements profile
  • Client briefing
  • Establishment of search strategy and list of target companies
  • Preliminary considerations regarding possible scouts and sources

Candidate search with Triple S™

  • Use of systematic Scouting, Sourcing and Searching to identify the best in the industry in a comparable position
  • Longlisting and ranking of candidates with regard to how accurately they match the requirements
  • Contacting the top-ranked candidates personally

3. Candidate interviews

  • Personal interviews with interested candidates
  • Shortlisting and ranking of candidates with regard to how accurately they match the requirements and their interest in changing positions
  • Drawing up confidential reports on the best candidates interviewed

4. Presentation and selection of candidates

  • Presentation of 3 to 4 top candidates to the client
  • Consultancy with the client on selecting the best candidate
  • Specific procurement of references

5. Candidate placement

  • Consultancy for contract negotiations between client and candidate
  • Concluding meeting with the client

6. Inplacement

  • Accompanying the job familiarisation process
  • Project-specific follow-up

“Filling key positions accurately does not happen by chance, but is the result of a systematic recruiting process.”
Dr. Silke Kraft-Vogelsang
“The focus of our search is not necessarily on the candidates with the best formal qualifications, but on those with the blend of competencies that best matches the specific requirements of your organisation.”
