There are many facets to Handler & Associates that set us apart from other executive search firms.

Our highly qualified staff, placement guarentees, fee structure, solid reputation, strong work ethic and commitment, focus on candidate diversity, weekly progress reporting, search methodology, industry expertise, extensive industry contacts, off-limits policy, emphasis on finding "NewGen" leadership, and our affiliation with the World Search Group are just a few of the tools we can put to work for you. We offer significant advantages to our clients:

Teamwork Approach = Better Results. Our professional researchers, the consultant executing the assignment and the client relation executive provide original focused research for each assignment. Over dependence on online and internal databases deprives the client of the very best candidates. No two assignments are exactly alike, and only original research and proactive sourcing of the passive candidate will insure a robust slate of qualified and committed individuals.

Quick Start. We initiate activity almost instantaneously with the resultant successful conclusion often weeks sooner than our larger competitors.

Candidates That Fit. We understand the importance of finding candidates that fit the culture of our clients as well as their professional requirements. Therefore, we assess each candidate’s personal traits for cultural fit as well as evaluate their professional background.

Consistent Communication. The client is never in the dark. Weekly progress reports are provided informing the client of the search strategy, and the execution of that strategy producing a two-way pipeline of information and insight.

Best Guarantees in the Industry. Our performance guarantee is unique in the search industry and allows the client to evaluate our performance without putting corporate funds at risk. Our employee guarantee is offered unconditionally.

Off Limits Policy. Our off limits policy is the best in our industry. We will not recruit from your company, and this policy is enterprise wide, absolute and two years in length. Placed candidates will never be recruited for another client.

Tenure of Our Firm. Since 1977, we have successfully concluded more than 2,500 assignments. Our tenure and success is attributed to our focus on quality work and quality placements. As a boutique executive search firm, we consistently provide “high touch” service to each of our clients while having sufficient size and resources to excel in the execution of every search.

Our People. Our consulting staff, the people who actually do the work, are highly experienced professionals who have a minimum of 20 years of corporate experience. Our practical knowledge coupled with our executive search experience is a winning combination.

Diversity. As a firm, we continue to seek out and present diversity candidates for every search assignment we conduct.

Ethics. We live by our published Code of Ethic’s, Practice Guidelines and Values.
