In 1994, the company began to examine its place in the search
industry and to re-engineer itself to maximize customer satisfaction. Among the
questions we asked ourselves were these:
How can we add value to a client's search and recruiting
efforts?
What sort of traits or behaviors does a client seek in their search firm?
Why would clients change search firms? What would have to
happen for a client to use the same search firm twice? Three
times? All the time?
How do we develop enduring and efficient relationships with clients?
How do we eliminate those facets of the traditional search "agency" that clients
don't like?
Did our re-engineering succeed? There is no clearer indication of the improvement in
the quality of service we provide then to realize that, in 1993, Denson & Associates
submitted over 22 resumes to a client to achieve a placement. That number has
dropped steadily over the years as a direct result of our re-engineering efforts.
Today we submit, on average, eight candidates for your review per successful placement.
Further, the number of interviews our clients have had to conduct in order to fill
their position has dropped steadily. In 1993, our clients interviewed just under six
candidates to fill their position. This number now hovers around four--only four
interviews to get the candidate you want on board.
