How BrainWorks Acquires the Top Talent in the Industry

1. How BrainWorks Acquires the Top Talent in the Industry For nearly three decades, BrainWorks has been recognized as a high-level talent-acquisition firm. They both define and are redefining the standard for how executive and C-level recruiting drives success. The innovation that has established their position as an industry thought leader is due in no small part to the comprehensive recruitment process they’ve developed. Targeting Candidates The first step in BrainWorks’ talent-detection process is a targeted conception of exactly who they’re looking for. They’re not just looking for candidates who are good at what they do—they are pinpointed candidates who are great at what they do in specific industries. Their analytic recruiting, for instance, focuses on applicants who either shine in the field of analytics and data sciences or possess the specific skill set that lends itself to success in the industry. To guarantee the success of this targeted recruitment process, BrainWorks employs their proprietary Talent Evaluation Process (TEP). This process leads candidates through an extremely informative series of in-depth interviews, as well as a study of each candidate’s work background and specific achievements in previous positions. TEP provides a focused evaluation of a candidate’s motivators and accomplishments, energy and drive, and

Sourcing Candidates The sourcing of candidates takes the BrainWorks team anywhere great talent can be found. By leveraging their proprietary recruitment processes, they analyze social media, scour talent communities on the web, and tap into their own vast talent networks to identify likely leaders. BrainWorks has decades of experience in their practice areas, which include digital marketing and ecommerce, analytics and data sciences, CRM and direct marketing, market research and consumer insights, and consumer products. Their CPG recruiters have placed numerous consumer products executives and the BrainWorks’ team is accustomed to finding the top, C- level talent across industries. They can also focus specifically on these practice areas to further streamline their talent pool. That means that anyone in those or peripheral businesses are assured the most qualified candidates for their positions. Presenting Candidates Once a likely candidate has been identified, in-depth reference checks are done. In addition to TEP, BrainWorks also uses their proprietary STAR process (Seven Traits to Assess Results) to further vet candidates. Then, the interviewing and hiring process can begin with the business interested in bringing on top, C-level talent. The organization interested in potentially hiring the candidate is then provided with the assistance and support nearly three decades’ worth of experience can offer. That assistance includes planning interviews and coaching the interviewers, responding to candidate feedback, and salary negotiating and guidance through the presentation of an offer. Onboarding Candidates Gaining renown for their talent as data science recruiters, an incredibly competitive and specialized field, required the BrainWorks team to recognize that the process doesn’t end once a candidate has been hired. As such, they continue to work through the onboarding process with both the new employee and the employer. That includes assisting the new hire through their resignation and providing feedback to the hiring organization for managing counteroffers, should that be necessary. BrainWorks aids in transition, offers relocation assistance, and continues to follow up once placement is complete to ensure everyone’s expectations are met.
