Clockwork Recruiting Blog

Whether you’re doing research at an executive search firm, an in-house or corporate executive recruiting team, or an institutional investor, at some point you will need to demonstrate the competence and thoroughness of your work. Executives are key hires and represent the future success for the company. Your stakeholders will want to know you’ve left no stone unturned.

It’s that time of year again when we reminisce the old year in anticipation for the new one to come rolling around. In keeping with the season, Clockwork is rounding out 2019 with a look back at the year’s greatest achievements.

When carrying out a search project, it helps to have as much information on a person as possible. The more information you have on a person, the better you’re able to evaluate them as a candidate, and the more data you’ll have to analyze your firm’s People Database.

While Clockwork comes with all of the standard fields you need, some of our customers have specific information they want to track. That’s where Custom Fields come in. When you need to capture specific information about a person, regardless of project or candidate status, Custom Fields allow you to capture this data and use it in a multitude of ways. 

Diversity has been a topic of discussion for a very long time. In the 1980s, Diversity became a popular theme and focus in movies and TV storylines, and perhaps this theme is why there has been a new-found resurgence for 80’s popular culture. Up until the last few years Diversity had taken a relatively passive role in the workplace for building a corporate culture of inclusion, trust and respect. However as new generations of talent begin to rise up from managerial roles and into Director level positions and above, Diversity and Inclusion has become a pivotal business best practice and focal point for attracting and retaining key talent.

Consulting is the cornerstone of the executive search process.
