Professional retained executive search today? Joseph Michaels International executive search firm was founded on the principles of providing leading corporations and emerging growth companies with the top performers in the marketplace and continues to do so through its impressive client list. JMI uses a search process that is focused on recruiting passive candidates. Typically, the best have a job, and we have to go to them. They are often not unemployed, unhappy, or unqualified, but rather gainfully employed. However, just because these outstanding candidates are not “looking for a job” doesn’t mean they don’t want to hear about your opportunity. Our executive search firm works directly with several industries. See additional information on executive search.

Culture. Through this pandemic, I’ve been amazed to hear the stories of companies that just refused to quit. Their business and people are too important to them. If that determination and perseverance wasn’t a fundamental part of the DNA of a company’s culture before the crisis, that’s not something that can be suddenly turned on when things get tough. When companies have a compelling purpose that people can rally around and believe in, teams can quickly get aligned and overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges. Every good coworker has a passion to have a job that is relevant and important. Strong leaders give their people a voice in their organization, and ensure they have autonomy and competence to act. Disruption, uncertainty and remote working do not have to shatter culture. Culture can set you apart, help you retain and attract top talent, and make customers proud to work with you.

Continue Recruiting Even if You Aren’t Hiring! For some, the inherent cost of extending an offer and onboarding a new employee is not feasible at this time. As noted before, no industry or company is immune to the economic reaction to COVID-19, but some have been hit harder than others. However you communicate with your candidates, remember that transparency and honesty are key. Avoid “stringing people along,” if you know you cannot extend an offer now, be honest about it. Nothing travels faster than bad news, and a disgruntled candidate is far more likely to spread the word.

When hiring, give an edge to qualified candidates who have made it through multiple layoff rounds. They’re used to picking up the pieces after a massive layoff and are a better bet to know how to keep the operation moving smoothly. Be clear with them on company plans, and they may start imagining how to fix situations and turn things around. Identify candidates that have a track record of succeeding at things they’ve never done before. While most people can continually succeed in an upward linear fashion by building on prior experience, we are not in a linear period at the moment. The person who can repeatedly succeed in unknown situations is what some companies will need for fresh ideas and reinvention.

Joe Pelayo began in the recruiting business in 1986 when, as he says in his speeches, he “found every way to fail in the recruiting business.” Joe started his career with a large publicly held recruiting firm and after being talked out of quitting the business by a couple people who thought he could have some potential, he managed to stay on and began to get a taste of success. In 1990 he launched Joseph Michaels International, one of the leading Executive Search firms according to the SF Business Times. Joe is now one of the leading 75 recruiters in the United States recognized in Recruiter Life Magazine. He is also a Past President of the Young Entrepreneurs Organization, a group of million dollar business owners under the age of 40. Joe has sat on the board of directors of the National Association of Personnel Services, and he is a Past President of the Institute of Management Accountants. Joseph Michaels Inc. recruits for clients ranging from Coca-Cola, Foster Farms, Sony and numerous other well known companies. Find additional information on https://josephmichaels.com/.
