Why Retain Alta?

We don't just fill jobs...We build teams, we strengthen relationships. Alta knows it's not about this search--it's about all that follows when we've exceeded your expectations. That's what separates a partner from a vendor and what puts us ahead of our competitors.

 

Why a Retainer?

It's about commitment. Both ours and yours. Ask yourself the following questions:

  • Can I risk losing the headcount for this role or is it best to lock-in my firm's commitment now?
  • Would I benefit from working with a trusted advisor?
  • Am I interested in reviewing the most well-screened slate of candidates from which I can choose?
  • Is my internal recruiting function not capable of prioritizing or providing ideal candidates for this role?
  • Is this role key to my success?

If your answer is "yes", the solution is Alta.

During our retained search process, Alta invests the time to truly understand your needs and assigns you an experienced relationship manager who tracks and oversees our mutual progress. Utilizing our highly tailored network, we effectively identify, screen, present and manage a pipeline of qualified candidates. We then work collaboratively with your team to oversee the facilitation of the process and advise you proactively to ensure a successful conclusion for all parties. Our retained searches become our top priorities. Contingency searches are welcomed, but in the end, a retained based approach will result in guaranteed results.
