Retained search is particularly appropriate when the need is urgent, the hire will have a significant impact on company performance, or new opportunities emerge that must be quickly addressed. Retained executive search represents a commitment from both sides and sends a strong message to candidates that the company highly values this opportunity.
A critical difference with GTA Search Group Inc. is that the retained search recruiter you meet at the outset of the relationship is the person who will be your single point of contact throughout the relationship. We buck the practice of many other retained search firms who fly in one team for the proposal presentation and then turn the actual search over to a different group.
Our retained executive search consultants remain with you every step of the way, meeting you at the beginning and following through with you and the successful candidate long after the hire.
With GTA Search Group Inc., one knowledgeable expert serves as your central point of contact and is committed to and accountable for filling that position. The result of that singular dedication is an extremely high success rate for retained executive search. And isn’t that what you’re after—results?

We listen to all of the dynamics involved in the retained recruiting process, ensuring that everyone in your organization—from the hiring manager to the head of HR—and our organization, are on the same page.
