Candidates assessment

Providing top-quality lists for business

Helping employee to achieve first results

We maintain a database of candidates and track their career path, in order to have a clear vision of the candidates marketplace and be able to identify perfect-match experts, including those not currently searching for a new job.
We provide a comprehensive report for a candidate, with an evaluation on 20+ parameters: including their response to problems and strict regulations, hidden motives and key competences unfolding within the work process.
We identify the most suitable experts, matching a position and business goals of the client. We evaluate their both hard, soft, and metaskills and make sure there'll be a cultural fit with the company values.
We carry out onboarding of a candidate with the support of a coach and an onboarding team — this is how the specialist quickly plunges into work and begins to close business goals in the first 3-6 months.

Senior HR BP, international technology company
During the period of working with the agency, consultants succeed in selecting high-quality and unique candidate profiles for us.

I would especially like to note that the Be-Exec team worked quickly, while the experts well understood the specifics of our business and the team's values. We've closed a number of key roles with their help.

We are now continuing to work with the agency to close several key executives into our business units. And we are sure that everything will be successful.
