"I act as a hiring partner by respecting all candidates who apply, ensuring that I act as an extension of my clients' HR department. I remain abreast of the concerns and hot topics in their industry so that my recommendations and analysis are not one-sided or uneducated. Also, I never treat their search exactly like I treat another. I make sure to spend time listening to my clients' needs while learning the ins and outs of their company. Then, I create a search strategy based that customized information."

Executive recruiters act as consultants and project partners to their clients. For instance, a client may need you to approach a surgeon for their hospital, whom they've had their eye on for three years. You cannot just call that physician and offer them a job. First, you have to help your client form a strategy and then execute that plan in agreement. The interviewer would like to know the different ways that you collaborate with your clients, ensuring they receive only the best experience from you at all times.

"I always pave the right path with my clients by first ensuring all details are correct when it comes to the job description and what the offer will contain. When we have solid groundwork, we will have a very successful partnership. By taking this initial step, I can advise my client if I feel their expectations misalign with the market or competitive analysis. I will advise on salary after spending time benchmarking, and I react promptly ensuring they always feel the support of myself and my research team."
