Why Work with a KBIC Recruiter?
At Kaye/Bassman International Corp., we specialize in Market Mastery, meaning we can understand the business you are in and where you want to go with your career. We know the details and nuances that make each position inside the Food Industry incredibly unique because the KBIC Food Industry Team spent time in senior leadership positions within the Food Industry- prior to becoming Search Consultants. We speak to thousands of individuals in your market and can help you leverage your experience to make the most out of the next step in your career- an insight that many candidates wouldn’t have without having a recruiter who specializes in Market Mastery.
Why does this benefit you: the candidate?
Our expertise gives us credibility and rapport with the hiring manager that surpasses the connecting ability of your resume alone. You are more than a resume and the Kaye/ Bassman Search Consultants go out of their way to represent you first, and your resume- second. Submitting a resume online can sometimes be fruitful, but many times it doesn’t make it into the right hands. When the resume does make it into the right hands, often times a candidate’s personality and what they have to offer may not come across the way it is intended.
Our Promise to You
The Food Industry search consultants at Kaye/Bassman has adopted these five bill rights that each candidate should expect, as outlined by the AESC’s (The Association of Executive Search Consultants).
- Confidentiality. As a candidate, you assume some risk should your current employer learn about the search. You should therefore have a right to expect the highest degree of confidentiality from the search firm you work with. Kaye/Bassman works confidentially with every candidate who requests it, NO EXCEPTIONS.
- Full disclosure. To make the right decision, you must be given all the information you need about the search firm, the client and the position. We subscribe to this right for each of the candidates we represent.
- Professional treatment. Your Kaye/Bassman search consultant should answer your questions honestly, be organized and prepared. He/she should also respect the time you are investing.
- Adequate process details. Your Kaye/Bassman search consultant should tell you about the time frame of the search, the steps that lie ahead, and whom you will need to meet before a decision is made.
- No pressure. Your decision should never be hurried, and you should not be pressured to accept an offer. We will however make you aware of deadlines and the implications of making or not making a timely decision.
