A cost effective solution that proved successful in uncovering hidden talent for our Higher Education client!

Scenario

The DuffyGroup, Inc. research team was contacted by a private medical school in Phoenix, Arizona. Their recruiting challenge was to attract and hire a Dean of Students from the local area. This higher education professional required student services experience in a graduate setting.

Strategy

The research team experts at Duffy identified and contacted 35 Phoenix area individuals in Dean of Student (or equivalent) roles. The position was also posted on a local job board. The professional networking was a success and yielded 5 interested candidates. The Duffy team pre-screened all candidates to check for skills match and salary requirements.

ROI/Results

• 5 candidates were submitted to the client.  They chose to interview 3 of the 6
• 1 hire, starting salary was $70,000 base  
• The individual that was hired was a passive candidate. This individual would not have looked at the position has he not been contacted about it

Comparison

Our typical research fee is 10-14% of the first year total salary (varies based on job level and industry). The cost per hire on this project was significantly less than using a traditional search firm.
