What is the BOB Search Process and how does your executive search firm differentiate from the rest?
We will develop a performance-based position profile that focuses on the specific results you need from the position. This helps us as a recruiting tool as it attracts the passive aerospace candidates and cleanly evaluates each individual candidate to ensure a precise fit. We then develop a pipeline of 200+ aerospace candidates who will be a precise fit for this search. Our recruiters reach out in multiple ways until we have contacted 70%+ of the candidates. From there, we find 10 aerospace prospects and submit the 3-5 best candidates. This includes a detailed candidate summary of their entire work history, their compensation, and relocation issues, as well as their resume. You will have every detail needed to make a decision.
BOB Search is a name that is known amongst candidates in aerospace and defense. They take our calls, they return our calls, and they give us referrals (and confidential references) because we are a trusted name in the market.

POSITION PROFILE EXAMPLES
How long does the search take?
Can you explain the advantages and disadvantages of retained and contingency firms?
BENEFITS TO EMPLOYER | CONTINGENCY | RETAINED |
---|---|---|
BEST CANDIDATE | Deliver the first three candidates they can find. May or may not be a fit. | Deliver the best three (or more) candidates after a thorough search, giving you a better choice and better fit. |
CREDIBILITY WITH CANDIDATES | High-level candidates hang up on contingency recruiters. All you see are active job seekers – not always the best candidates. | A good retained search firm, known in their domain, will get through to many more candidates, giving you a higher yield of passive candidates (non-active job seekers) |
TIME COMMITMENT | Must work 3 times as many assignments, since not all will result in payment. Gives you one third the effort. | Fills every assignment they get, so can accept fewer assignments, and devote 3 times the effort. |
SOURCE OF CANDIDATES | From their own files – usually active job seekers. | Custom sourcing to your precise needs – increased accuracy of fit. |
SIZE OF CANDIDATE POOL | Usually look at 20-30 resumes. | Cast a wide net. Reach out to 250+ candidates. |
QUALITY OF EVALUATION | Superficial review. | In-depth review of motivation, compensation, relocation, job history, and specific capability to do the job. |
WHAT YOU RECEIVE | Resume only. | Complete package with summary of findings, and candidate write-up on capabilities to deliver results you need. |
FEE | About the same as retained. | About the same as contingency. |
VALUE | 1/3 of value of retained. | 3 times the value of contingency. |
