FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

1. What percentage of your business is repeat business?

At FOCUS Search Partners, we believe that relationships are the key to our success. An outstanding 80% of our annual revenues are generated from clients we have previously served. We aim to develop long-term relationships to aid in a thorough and accurate completed search and the subsequent repeat business. We pride ourselves on developing quality relationships and delivering exceptional quality to earn repeat business from our clients. Our goal is to be your partner in the search, helping you find the best executive leadership talent for your company.

2. What is an "off-limits" policy?

Because of the "off limits" policy in the search industry, search firms will not be able to present any potential candidate from any company or division with which they have done business during the past twelve months. This can often present itself as a problem when you are trying to recruit candidates from large, international companies, talent-rich organizations and of course your business competitors. Large search firms tend to have more clients and, in return, will have more companies that are "off limits."

Because FOCUS Search Partners is a boutique firm, our business strategy is to build deep relationships with our clients. We have fewer clients and, therefore, our pool of available candidates is much more extensive.
