Search Process

Life Science Recruiters customizes each search to meet the needs of each client by qualifying and defining the characteristics of the position to be filled.  Clear channels of communication with decision makers allow us to understand and gauge your business needs, the corporate culture and the important nuances of the position you need filled.  Life Science Recruiters offers our clients a proprietary conduit to the finest talent.  Although each and every search is unique, our company has adopted a series of guidelines that allows us to achieve the finest results when initiating any new project.

Discovery Analysis

Your recruiter will work with you and others in your organization to develop an industry competitive description and specification that will lead to attracting the very best candidate. 

Identifying your requirements

An in-depth job description is vital to a successful search.  Using a set of internal guidelines and key words, our recruiters categorize your needs into a job order, which is then broadcast throughout the LSR network.

Action plan

Knowledge of your industry, your company, its competitors and the marketplace allows Life Science Recruiters to create a focused plan of action.  This plan details how we utilize our network of thought leaders and industry insiders to discreetly reach exceptional and hard to reach candidates.

Recognizing the greatest potential

Based on your needs and our research, LSR identifies the best potential candidates.  Education and experience are only one facet of a great professional. We evaluate candidates extensively, exploring the many facets of their persona in great detail.

Appraisal of prospects

The interviewing process we have adopted allows our network and your LSR recruiter to evaluate the talent in the marketplace and match the best talent to your needs.  We understand that the candidate’s ability to succeed in your organization is not just a paper process of simplistically matching your criteria with a resume. Life Science Recruiters makes assessments about the cultural fit between company and candidate, as well as long-term compatibility.  Our goal is to make permanent and long-term matches that will contribute to your company and its bottom line.

Reference research and certification

These processes are performed by designated experts at our organization as an option on your search.  LSR assigns this portion of the project to an in-house professional who concentrates on researching a candidate’s history and viability.  The process is extremely rigorous and highly detailed.  At your request, Life Science Recruiters can administer a standard FBI criminal background check.

Negotiation

The negotiation process has been proven time and again to contribute to an enduring relationship between prospective staff members and our clients; thorough knowledge in the initial stages of the association between employee and employer can contribute greatly to the longevity of the employee in the position.

Staying involved

Our job is far from over even after an acceptance.  Where appropriate, LSR will lead the candidate through the resignation process with their existing employer to maximize a healthy transition.  We also continue to follow up after the employment start date to acquire an evaluation and relevant feedback.
