Once the mandate has been initiated, you will receive the first candidates within 2 to 4 weeks. We take the time to meet the candidates before submitting their profile in order to ensure the relevance of their profile and job stability.
How do Thorens Solutions services work?
Once our service agreement signed, an Account Manager gets in touch with you to organize a meeting to initiate the mandate – by phone or in person – as to accurately define your needs and the profile you are looking for. A recruiter is then quickly assigned to the position and starts the search throughout our network, getting in touch with candidates who fit your requirements in order to present them with your opportunity and bring them in the recruitment process. Because we always call our candidates directly, we get an excellent response rate. We then meet with the candidates for a face-to-face interview before submitting their profiles to you.

Throughout the whole process, we offer you personalized support, rigorous follow-ups and strategic advice.
