Methodology and Recruitment Process

At BM Consulting, we approach executive search with a structured, strategic, and meticulous process. Each step is designed to ensure that we identify and place the best possible candidate, aligned with your business goals and values. Our methodology focuses on precision, confidentiality, and long-term success. Here’s a detailed overview of the process, along with a typical timeline:

1. Initial Consultation and Needs Assessment
(Week 1–2)

The first step in our process is to engage in a comprehensive consultation with the client to understand their unique needs, company culture, and strategic objectives.

Once the position profile is finalized, our team conducts extensive market research to identify potential candidates. This includes leveraging our global network, proprietary databases, and industry-specific insights.
