SPIJKERS

Often as a result of our involvement in preparing companies for their next steps and make them future proof there is a need for new motivated and experienced personnel. If required we can utilize international recruitment & selection. We focus however on (often international) professionals and managers with at least a Bachelors or Masters degree. We often recruit candidates at the start of their careers until the “last stop before the top”, for temporary as well as permanent positions. SPIJKERS™ offers a comprehensive range of services to help you recruit, select and employ the right candidate(s).

 

In the near future it will become more and more difficult to find suitable candidates with a Bachelors or Masters degree with the right background, experience and spirit. We will help our national and international clients find the right candidates and to pre-select them. Besides that we have our own database of potential candidates, we also have access to extensive networks, enabling us to find the perfect match for clients and candidates alike.

 

The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and the World Federation of People Management Associations (WFPMA), showed in their research From Capability to Profitability: Realizing the Value of People Management (2012), that companies adept at recruiting enjoyed 3.5 times the revenue growth and 2.1 times the profit margin of their less capable peers.

How to identify the best people for the job

SPIJKERS™ believe that executive recruitment can only be successful when conducted by practitioners who intimately know the industry, the issues facing the position, the candidates capable of effectively operating in the role and, as important, within the culture of the client’s organization.

• Behavioral mapping — our SPIJKERS Assessment℠ tool provides an unparalleled level of insight into prospective candidates. We can find out how they will lead, how they will approach and solve complex problems, what their emotional profile is likely to be, and what motivates them to succeed.

• Benchmarking — we compare assessment results against our statistically validated indicators of success, which can be customized to reflect the specific requirements of the organization and role
