hank you for your interest in AvondaleSearch.com. Whether you are visiting us for the first time or whether you are one of the retained clients we have worked with over the past five years, please know that your success through hiring the best and the brightest remains our first and foremost goal.

When I started in search nearly ten years ago, companies had much easier choices to make when deciding upon a strategy for recruitment. That landscape has changed dramatically, and most of that change has come about in the past year. The impetus of these changes of course is the internet, but the far reaching effects are that an awful lot of vendors are offering a wide variety of recruitment services with every interface, model and pricing structure imaginable. A recent article stated that there are over 25,000 recruitment web sites! Even for those of us who eat, drink and breathe this stuff, it is a full time job constantly staying on top of what is working, and what is not working.

The good news is that everyone now knows that attracting and retaining the best people is the best way to give your company a sharp competitive and profitable edge. The consternation I hear from technology companies is that they are overwhelmed with all the options, just to name a few: Resume banks, recruitment training programs, internet search engines, talent auctions, print or on-line advertising, search research, contract recruiters, on-line job fairs, acquisition models, internal vs. external recruiters, contingency search firms vs. retained search firms, referral programs, etc.

The truth of the matter is that recruitment solutions are of course not one size fits all. Let me help you identify and prioritize critical recruitment needs, profile the best places to find these key professionals, and then identify the best method to procure these people. Having a clear roadmap for talent acquisition will put you ahead of your competitors and will save you time, money and sleepless nights. Let us help you focus on your core competencies while we use our competency to your advantage.

If after identifying and planning your recruitment strategy, our firm can assist in any way, we will let you know honestly if and how we can help and in what capacity. If we're not the best resource for certain recruitment projects, we'll refer you to the right vendors who can help.

Think of me as your Chief Recruitment Officer. I'd like the opportunity to be on your team.

Yours sincerely,



Margot Finley-Aguilera
President
