Our Approach
Expect Exceptional Service
We Are Your Business Partner
With so much information across so many channels, finding the right talent for your position can be an overwhelming task.
The old world of recruiting used to consist of want ads, job boards, computer-generated screenings, and resume after resume. The new world of recruiting is based on partnerships, precision, and timely, dedicated searches.

Recruiting is as Much an Art as it is a Science
Finding your prized talent takes more than a LinkedIn search.
We bring in the ideal candidates that will truly thrive in the position.
The Hedberg Search Process
What makes someone the best candidate for a job? That’s the question we help answer.
Here are the five steps in the Hedberg Search process.
Define your Search
This step builds a strong foundation for the entire search. We discuss your absolute must-haves as well as nice-to-haves. Once we have identified the expectations, challenges and the competencies needed to be successful, we help define the role and ideal candidate, be it Wonder Woman or Clark Kent.
Together, we create a questionnaire to identify candidates that are the best fit for the role.
Launching your Search
Great candidates have options. Why would a top candidate want to join your organization? Together, we create a compelling story that will get the ideal candidates to consider your position—whether they are actively looking or not.
Research and Networking
This important and intense portion of the search proves it’s not who you know, it’s who you are about to know! We buckle down, research, and go after the target market. We pride ourselves in efficiently finding top-qualified candidates who align with the position requirements. Whether it’s through our network or our research capabilities, we weed through to bring you talent you would compete for.
Candidate Assessments
The identifying questionnaire we developed when defining your search will contribute to eliminating marginal candidates and identifying the top dogs. We assess motivations beyond money, ensuring the new role with your company is a productive career move. We only present stand out, qualified candidates positioned to join your team. When we recommend a candidate, they are on-target.
Extend Offer and Follow-Up
Did you know most deals fall apart in this stage? We are closers, and this is one of the areas that differentiates us. From pinpointing the role definition and ideal candidate to learning early on what motivates the candidates and qualifying them from a monetary standpoint, we don’t waste time or resources. One company’s sore spot is our forte. We are great at closing deals.

It will be the fast beating the slow.“
