Contingency Based Consulting
Contingency based (or Success based) consulting operates on the same basic principles as Retainer based consulting, but involves a different level of commitment from the client and from SMC. In a contingency search, the client chooses not to use SMC exclusively, and as such, there is no up front fee paid to SMC. Our fee is completely dependent on the efficacy of our search, and there is no commitment on your part to hire, or even meet, any candidate we introduce.
Due to the success based nature of the search, candidates introduced in a contingency search may be introduced to other clients as well. This approach is often used to augment an existing Human Resources department, without committing to a single outside agency.
SMC's Approach to Contingency Based Consulting
SMC puts client satisfaction first in every search. Unlike employment agencies that send off masses of resumes to every HR department they deal with, our research and selectiveness ensures that you only get the most talented, suitable, and interested candidates available.
Our young, dynamic and experienced consultants and research staff make connections with the hottest, most qualified candidates. Rather than relying exclusively on our network of contacts, we are extremely pro-active in finding new sources of candidates
The confidential relationships we have built with our candidates ensure that they have the information necessary to make a positive career decision. We don't simply locate key personnel; we educate and motivate on your behalf, to be sure that they understand and can be a part of your corporate identity.
