Our work process
An overall needs analysis is carried out at the first contact. Thanks to our long experience and experienced executive recruiters, we can quickly understand the needs and advise on any questions or concerns.
Based on the needs analysis, we create, preferably together with the customer in real time, a requirements profile that defines requirements for skills and experience. The requirements profile then forms the basis for the continued process through dialogue with candidates, candidate presentations, reference taking and follow-up during the interim assignment.
Interim recruitment has to be fast. The secret is to have a large network of candidates with up-to-date information on their skills and availability. We have that at Brightmill. To find the best candidates, we always rely on our own network of carefully selected candidates across Sweden, Denmark and Germany. We work quickly and efficiently thanks to our proprietary system support that makes us spot-on and time-efficient.
In order to make the selection process as efficient as possible, we use our digital profile tool to compare candidates' competences with the requirements profile. This allows us to ensure the objectivity of the selection and that the candidates contacted have a relevant profile.
At Brightmill, we work exclusively with competence-based recruitment. The responsible executive recruiter interviews the candidates and prepares a clear candidate profile to complement the candidate's CV. Brightmill presents the most interesting candidates to the client.
The client interviews selected candidates and selects their final candidate.
Background checks are carried out on all candidates we present. Reference checks are carried out by Brightmill on the final candidate. It is also based on the requirements profile and supplemented by a series of generic questions that are compiled in writing in an easy-to-understand format.
Contracts are signed digitally with the client and then with the consultant. Brightmill also provides assistance with start-up and onboarding.
Development with an interim consultant
A common perception about interim consultants is that assignments are often in the line and of an administrative nature. This is true to some extent. At the same time, many of our consultants testify that their assignments often shift from administrative to development. Clients take advantage of the opportunity to benefit from the experience and competence offered by the interim consultant.
So hiring an interim consultant is a great way for a client to create value and drive development in the company. Sometimes there can also be value in bringing in an interim consultant for a specific project; reviewing processes and procedures, implementing a new system or even an organizational change. By bringing in an interim consultant, you can create flexible conditions for new insights and constructive solutions that create value in the business.
