Recruiting Services Built for Leadership and Professional Roles

Professional recruitment services for hard-to-fill roles provided by OnPoint Recruitment

Hiring the wrong person is expensive. Leaving a critical role unfilled is costly too.

OnPoint Recruitment helps organizations fill leadership and difficult-to-fill professional positions, including searches where the right candidates aren’t actively looking.

Whether you’re hiring an experienced professional, department leader or senior executive, we go into the market to find people with the experience the position requires.

Who We Work With

  • CEOs & Founders
  • Presidents &General Managers
  • CFOs & Finance Leaders
  • CHROs & HR Leaders
  • Talent Acquisition Leaders

We work directly with business and talent leaders responsible for important hiring decisions.

When Clients Typically Call Us

✓ A critical role has been open too long

✓ Qualified candidates aren’t applying

✓ Internal recruiting efforts have stalled

✓ The people you want to reach aren’t actively looking

✓ The hire is too important to get wrong

Professional Search for Difficult-to-Fill Roles

Some positions don’t require an executive search, but they’re still difficult to fill. We recruit experienced professionals, specialists and emerging leaders when job postings and traditional sourcing aren’t producing the people you need.

What You Can Expect

  • Direct outreach to experienced professionals
  • A focused shortlist rather than resume volume
  • Candidates screened for experience, motivation and fit
  • Consistent communication throughout the search

The goal is to reach qualified people your organization may not find through job postings or its existing recruiting network.

Targeted Search for Important Leadership Hires

Leadership positions are different because the consequences of getting the hire wrong extend well beyond the individual. We help organizations find experienced leaders who have already handled responsibilities and challenges similar to the ones they’ll face in the new role.

What We Look for Beyond the Resume

  • Relevant leadership experience and results
  • How the candidate has built and led teams
  • How they’ve handled change, growth or difficult decisions
  • Why they’re considering a move
  • Whether the opportunity makes sense for both the client and candidate

Before we start recruiting, we work with you to understand what this person actually needs to accomplish. That gives us a much clearer picture of who is worth approaching, and who isn’t.

Our Process

A Clear, Step-by-Step Hiring Process
OnPoint Recruitment’s seven-step hiring process illustrating discovery, passive sourcing, candidate outreach, shortlist presentation, interviews, offer support, and post-hire follow-up.

Every search is different, but the basic process is consistent. We start by understanding the position, identify and approach potential candidates, evaluate the strongest prospects and stay involved through the final hire.

1. Discovery & Role Alignment

We start by understanding the position, the team, what success looks like and why the hire matters. We also identify anything that may make the search unnecessarily difficult.

2. Targeted Passive-Candidate Sourcing

We identify people with the experience the position requires, including professionals who aren't actively looking but may be open to the right opportunity.

3. Candidate Outreach & Evaluation

We approach the candidate directly and learn about their experience, motivation and interest in the opportunity before deciding whether we should present them to your team.

4. Focused Shortlist

You receive a small group of candidates we believe are worth your time, not a stack of resumes. We explain what we see in each candidate, including strengths and any concerns worth discussing.

5. Interviews & Feedback

We coordinate interviews, stay in contact with both sides and help keep the process moving. Candidate feedback also give us information we can use to refine the search when necessary.

6. Selection & Offer

Once you've selected a finalist, we stay involved through compensation discussions, offer acceptance and any issues that could put the hire at risk. That includes understanding potential counteroffers before they become last-minute surprises.

7. Post-Hire Follow-Up

We stay in touch after the person starts to make sure things are progressing as expected on both sides.
