Frequently Asked Questions

When Should I Use ESA?

Dollar for dollar, professional search services will always cost more than using your own resources to recruit executives through job boards, business publications, and local advertising. The real issue comes down to value. Ask yourself:

• Is recruiting the best use of your staff’s time and your company’s resources?
• Are your recruitment channels attracting the best people?
• Does your staff really know how to interview candidates to elicit the most important insights? Can they legally ask the questions you really need answered?

Do you provide staffing services?

ESA can provide you with the full-time, part-time, contract, consultant, or service provider experts you need to successfully build and maintain your business or branch office. Let us know your needs. If we can help you, we will tell you so and if we can’t, we will recommend you to trusted others who can.

Do you provide Consultants?

In many cases, hiring highly qualified consultants on a per-project or part-time basis is the best fiscal strategy for getting the specific expertise you need. ESA has longstanding relationships with many top consultants, and are pleased to refer to you those in whom we have the greatest confidence.

Do you provide Executive Coaching?

Executive Coaching is a mutually designed relationship between a professional coach and a key contributor who has a powerful position in the organization…The coaching is for the benefit of a client who is accountable for highly complex decisions with a wide scope of impact on the organization. The coaching is usually focused on organizational performance or development, but it may also serve a personal component as well.

Executive Coaching is about helping leaders get unstuck from their dilemmas and assist them to transfer their learning into results for the organization. ESA provides Executive Coaching to inspire leaders to make behavioral changes which can transform themselves and the people around them thereby increasing business results and performance.

Is my Search Confidential?
