That means these candidates are the best performers in their respective industries. They always exceed their given targets, excel in difficult business environment, highly valued by their companies, and even competitors admire them. They are the top guns in their professions, and command great respect from their clients and competitors. These candidates are cream of the crop. They are top-notch. We always look for candidates with these qualities: Track record of performance, intelligence and "street smarts", leadership, people skills, high energy, motivation, honesty and integrity, sense of humor, humility, balance, and no job-hopping. Apex Headhunters has experience in all industries and in all functional areas of human capital. Our clients are mostly worldwide MNCs from US, Europe, Japan, and Asia Pacific, and some from Middle East and Latin America. We are able to headhunt candidates from any countries in the world according to our clients’ specifications. One of the greatest strengths of Apex Headhunters is the speed of finding the perfect candidates according to our clients’ timing. The most demanding client had given Apex Headhunters three days to complete the search when two other search firms had failed, but we delivered the candidate within 24 hours! Please see Success Stories. Apex Headhunters has a no-nonsense approach toward headhunting. We don’t speculate. Either we are very sure the candidate will succeed in the new job, or we will never recommend him or her at all. We don’t waste our client’s time, the candidate’s time, nor our time. Usually we only have to submit one or two candidates and they will be on target. We provide service guarantee. 18 Professional Groups Apex Headhunters does search assignments in all industries. We organize all functional positions into 18 Professional Groups:
New Startup Example 1: An international software MNC was moving its Regional HQ from Japan to Singapore. Due to the political sensitivity of not choosing the other country, this MNC was looking for a search firm that could scout in silent without causing any rippers in the industry, yet could do it in double speed within a short period. They were looking for middle and senior level executives with Japanese, Chinese and English linguistic skills to fill about 20 positions. Apex Headhunters was chosen because its consultants speak all three languages and its experience in the Asia Pacific region. In fact, the recruitment project was so well executed that it finished about one month in advance, and saved the MNC a lot of money as well through lower starting salaries. Example 2: An European company had been very successful in Europe and in the US. They were looking forward to set up a regional office in Singapore to expand their business into the Asia Pacific. They wanted someone who had regional experience, good network in each country, and be able to meet sales target. This client specified that they wanted to interview 4 candidates. In two weeks’ time Apex Headhunters had arranged the candidates. The client flew down to Singapore to interview them in a hotel, and one of them was hired on the second day. If you are setting up a new office to take care of the Asia Pacific market, Apex Headhunters has a lot of experience to offer you. Expat Replacement On the average, an expat manager will cost about three times the price of a local manager. This MNC is looking for some ways to lower the costs of operations. They consulted Apex Headhunters. We were able to headhunt equally excellent executives to replace their expat managers. If your company is having a very high overhead manpower cost because of too many expats in your payroll, Apex Headhunters is able to trim it down by scouting the best local candidates for replacements without sacrificing your company’s performance. We have done expat replacements especially for country head that has a definite posting period where the number two executive will eventually take over his superior’s position few years down the road. Advertised Recruitment A foreign MNC was about to enter a country. But they didn't want to let the competitors in the industry to have extra lead time to prepare against them. On the other hand, they have a tight budget. Apex Headhunters came up with a hybrid solution of advertised recruitment. It was able to attract several good candidates. Eventually one was hired. Apex Headhunters advertised recruitment has headhunting service as a backup without increasing the cost of recruiting. Unique Request Example 1: The Managing Director of one engineering company has met one very good marketing manager from a competitor in an exhibition. A year later he needed to fill a marketing position in his company and he thought of him. For some reasons he didn't want to rock the boat. He approached Apex Headhunters to test the water for him. We planned the execution without a single flaw. He was scouted into the fold. Example 2: A company has lost one excellent executive because he followed his department head when she resigned. The CEO of this company agonized over double losses. He approached Apex Headhunters to help convince him to come back. It required a carefully crafted strategy and presentation skill to win the heart and mind of this executive. He was doubtful and suspicious at the first meeting. But by the end of the second meeting he was totally convinced of the sincerity and genuineness of his former CEO. We managed to pull him back successfully without a hitch. Apex Headhunters welcomes any kinds of unique request you might have. To inquire about our Client Services
