Our process
1. Mandate initiation meeting
The purpose of the mandate initiation meeting is to define the profile of the ideal candidate and obtain all relevant details concerning your opportunity and the context of your municipality.
2. Candidates search
After developing a strategy to target the right candidates from the very beginning, our recruiters start searching our extensive network.
3. Telephone approach and Candidate selection
Our recruiters prioritize telephone contacts, and take the time to assess candidates' profiles in terms of your requirements and their interest in the position. If the telephone interview is conclusive, they organize a virtual interview.
4. Complete virtual interview
In a virtual interview, our recruiters assess the suitability, career consistency and job stability of each candidate under consideration. They also analyze their needs and motivations to measure the compatibility of their profile with your opportunity and your city.
5. Presentation of candidates
If the candidate confirms their interest and matches the profile we're looking for, we'll send you their resume along with a standardized information summary ("Thorens" profile) that includes: reasons for leaving their current job, reasons for ending previous employment, main skills related to the position, level of education, strengths and areas of risk, salary expectations and availability for an interview.
6. Professional references, criminal background checks, and psychometric tests
We check the candidate's professional references and any other necessary verifications, and provide you with a report summarizing the comments of the persons contacted.
7. Submitting and offer and Hiring
You or Thorens can submit the job offer. In both cases, we follow up with the candidate to get their impressions of the offer.
8. Integration follow-up
Three months after the candidate has joined your organization, we carry out an integration follow-up. We also follow up with you to validate the immediate superior's satisfaction with the candidate we have placed.
