 Q. Why choose Charles MacPherson Associates? A: Because of our experience and proven track record since 1996 A: Because of our top notch reputation and unsurpassed recruitment standards A: Because of the depth of our candidate database and our extensive industry contacts A: Because of our expertise and our commitment to excellence A: Because we can quickly provide temporary, part-time or full-time staff A: Because we are discrete and dedicated to maintaining our clients' and candidates' confidentiality Q: What does it cost? A: For full time placements our fees are based on a percentage of the hired candidate's first year's compensation. Fee percentages may vary due to the nature of the assignment and/or the number of placements required. Q: Is there a Placement Guarantee? A: Yes. Our full-time placements are guaranteed for 60 days. We will replace the candidate or extend a credit to you (as per our agreement/fee schedule). Should either you or the hired candidate terminate the employment relationship prior to the expiration of the guarantee period then we will replace that person or will extend a credit to you. Q: How long does the Search Process take? A: We understand that speed is essential, however, we also only want to present the most qualified candidates to our clients. Generally our shortlist of candidates is prepared for client consideration within 5 to 10 business days. As we are not a resume referral service we require this time to complete our search process (which includes sourcing, screening and selection). Q: Why not just place a newspaper or Internet advertisement? A: We have built a deep and robust database of candidates who are the best in their field. It is our experience that the best candidates are usually happily employed and are not actively seeking new career opportunities. We have also found that candidates who are employed, concerned about confidentiality, are often reluctant to respond to ads. Assuming that the perfect candidate is ready to make a career change, what are the chances that he or she will see your ad on one of the days you run it? Q: Who have you worked for in the past? A: We would be pleased to supply references subject to our client confidentiality agreements. Selective case studies are posted on our website for your review. Q. How do I move forward? A.
