What's Included in the Fee
Everything you need to hire with confidence. No hidden fees, just full-service support.
You’ll work directly with a seasoned ExactSearch Client Partner from day one. No bait-and-switch. Your Client Partner manages your search end-to-end with strategic oversight, consistent communication, and total accountability.
We evaluate AI leadership potential, cultural fit, and performance indicators using real-time labor market and behavioral data so you don’t just get resumes, you get insights into their AI-forward leadership.
We don’t go quiet after kickoff. You’ll receive weekly or even daily touchpoints, shortlist reviews, and alignment check-ins to refine your ideal candidate profile in real time. No guessing, just clarity.
Access your pipeline, active candidates, search insights, and timelines: 24/7. Our custom dashboard keeps your team in sync and gives you the transparency and control that legacy firms can’t match.
