Hiring for Senior and Executive Roles
Executive Hiring is not rocket science, but there is an art to executive search. The subtle differences from standard requisitions when hiring for very senior and executive roles come from the seniority of the stakeholders, the consequences of making the wrong hiring decision, and the long courtship of candidates when headhunting. In this mission, you'll learn how to plan and prepare for an executive search assignment, the data and insights required to support hiring strategy, and techniques for engaging senior and executive talent.
