Despite its many years in business, this major company did not have a formal recruitment function — and knew that it was losing money, time and quality hires by poorly managing its relationships with outside search firms. It wanted to create a strong internal recruitment function that could address the top 200 positions across the organization.

Whitehouse Advisor was retained to build the in-house team from scratch, developing position descriptions for the new function, interviewing candidates and recommending the right systems and tools to support the company’s executive hires.

We hired the company’s first-ever Director of Recruitment and key members of his team and trained them in consistent and effective recruitment techniques.
