Why Companies Choose Newport
Long-term demographic trends have led to intense competition for qualified personnel. As a result, businesses invest valuable time and financial resources searching for the best talent with no guarantee of success.
Locating qualified personnel is not your primary business. In fact, the search process diverts your attention from operating your business. Searching for the best talent is our business. Newport Strategic Search has a proven track record of finding and placing top-caliber professionals in our fields of specialization.
Direct Sourcing & Candidate Targeting
Our preferred method of recruiting is via direct sourcing, which provides the best candidates. Direct sourcing from the competition provides more valuable candidates than ad campaigns that typically produce the unqualified, the unemployed, or the eternally discontent.
Our creative processes and cutting edge ideas help us to stay one step ahead of the competition and to find you the “hard to find” blue chip candidates. We also use a candidate targeting process that includes assessing our client’s needs, consulting our extensive database, and pinpointing talent within our client’s competitors, networking, and taking advantage of our affiliation with the largest worldwide network of independent executive search consultants to find the best possible talent. Our team is able to digest the client’s need, quickly identify the “players” in the industry, quietly approach them, and successfully recruit them for the position.
We earn our fees by creatively helping our clients find the people they need. We send a small, pre-screened group of candidates rather than a flood of marginally qualified candidates. Instead of jumping from company to company, we develop long-term, mutually beneficial partnering relationships with our client companies that are based on results. That is our mission.
