It has been our experience that the key to attracting and retaining the most productive and talented candidates  is about more than annual bonuses and perks.  Why?  Because these talented consulting professionals can switch jobs at will and command top compensation wherever they go.  With that being said, the onus is on us—as Bluegrass recruiters—to discover and document with clarity and purpose the specific attributes that make our Client Partner companies unique, special and relevant.    

For truly every company has a unique story to tell.  For example, an individual practice within a Client Partner company might be distinguished by a special kind of camaraderie and team spirit where in which success is shared and celebrated by all of the team members.  Other examples of unique corporate cultures could include a shared vision and common goal to which all employees aspire or, possibly, a commitment to excellence and an unwavering belief that the  services  that they provide actually make a difference. 

In yet other instances, it could be an accelerated promotion track in a fast growing service area and the challenge and opportunity of building a business (within a business).  Then again, it may be a sense of ownership that comes from formulating company policies or leading meaningful change initiatives that causes a person to feel as if they’re more than just a hired gun.  Or it could be one or more of the above in conjunction with something completely different—but just as special.  These are the intangibles that define what is important to us as individuals, how we value ourselves and why we do what we do.

Having discovered and documented the unique attributes that differentiate and distinguish our Client Partner companies from that of their competitors, it is our role and responsibility (as Bluegrass Recruiters) to articulate the most attractive qualities and benefits of our Client Partners to prospective job candidates. 

In this sense, we become both ambassadors and advocates of our Client Partners working together in a symbiotic relationship for the purpose of recruiting the right person, in the right role, at the right time, for the right venue.  This alignment of purpose yields significant economic and strategic benefits for our Client Partners including, but not limited to: 

1)  Elevating the quality and quantity of the professional candidates that are available for immediate consideration; 

2)  As a result of having a larger universe of qualified professionals from whom to choose, Client Partners are able to select and hire the candidate whose experience, expertise, talents and skills  offer  a synergistic fit for that particular role and position;

3)  Having placed the right person in the right role, the new hire is able to contribute quickly resulting in a minimum fall-off in billable productivity and essential business momentum;

4)     Client satisfaction remains high and is further reinforced by the addition of a new employee whose experience, expertise, professionalism and functional relevance not only adds value but enhances the credibility of the team;  

5)     Having exceeded the expectations of your client by delivering exceptional value on time and on budget, your company is well positioned to sell new projects and add-on work; and

6)     By consistently hiring the most talented and desirable candidates, the practices into which these professionals are placed will eventually achieve a competitive edge in a marketplace and industry where talent is the key differentiator and sole determinant of value. 

 
Another important consideration worth noting is that our Client Partners incur no upfront fees or financial risk as our success fee model guarantees that their requirements, expectations, needs and wants have been duly exceeded before payment for services is rendered.  At Bluegrass Recruiting, we take great pride in what we do.  For instance, if we are unable to source the job candidate that our Client Partner ultimately hires—then the cost to effect said search is born entirely by us.   

So whether you’re looking for a single consultant to address a specific need or multiple consultants to staff a new or growing practice, Bluegrass Recruiting should be the first call you make.  Because, in a world of trade-offs, compromises and risk, we make the decision effortless.  Bluegrass Recruiting, where relevant knowledge is applied for your benefit by people who care. 

Thank you for your interest and consideration.
