Canada Executive Search
|
ART recruits nationwide, and within the major linguistic and cultural communities of Canada.
Most Canadian executive search firms, by contrast, are highly localized, so that a search firm in Montreal might not have many candidate or company contacts in Québec City or Toronto. A Toronto recruitment firm might not know people or companies in Windsor, Ottawa, Mississauga, or Waterloo. A Vancouver search firm might not know candidates or companies in Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg or Halifax. In fact, too frequently in Canada, francophone recruiters might only recruit francophones, while anglophone recruiters might only recruit anglophones.
While talking heads might have all the time and money in the world to chat about "The Two Solitudes" or "the problem of Canadian regionalism," Canadian and foreign businesses have urgent needs to reach as much of the Canadian customer market as quickly, and as fully, as possible. Canadian customers want to be served equally, but if managers tend to be recruited with a focus on one locality or on one language group rather than by identifying the best national candidates, markets will tend to remain divided, and products and services might not be fully available to all.
The practices existing at most Canadian executive search firms of accepting as permanent facts regional feudalism or linguistic bifurcation, tend to make our competitors useless to our Canadian clients and candidates -- even in their own city! Canadian and foreign companies come to ART to end the hand-wringing about supposed divisions, and they ask us to just go find great managers who can bring together Canadian staff and customers nationwide.
In the harshest conditions, from the earliest times in Canadian history, when trade routes were created by people kayaking across the Bering Straits, crossing the North Atlantic in tall ships, or by portaging lakes, rivers and streams, there have been traders who have known how to bridge cultural gaps and make good business. Such people have always existed in Canada. They know how to listen to people, how to understand their needs, and then people look to them to lead. Such natural Canadian business leaders can be found today, if the recruiter understands what key characteristics and experiences to look for. We think that this is our strength, and we hope to bring our candidates to your firm.
When Canadian candidates or Canadian companies need to look beyond their immediate cities, across their province, across the nation, ART is better equipped to help introduce the right contacts.
We know and respect local markets while serving as a bridge between them. This is the great value that ART brings its clients and candidates in Canada, as well as foreign firms seeking Canadian CEO's, Managing Directors, General Managers, National Sales Directors, etc. who can reach all Canada. The alternative - engaging multiple search firms in multiple cities or provinces simply to identify top national candidates - is simply too impractical, too costly, too much prone to delays and other inefficiencies.
When Canadian candidates or Canadian companies need to look beyond Canada, and into the US, Latin America, Asia, Europe, the Mideast or Africa, ART is better equipped to help introduce the right contacts.
Unlike most recruitment firms based in Canada, which have to depend upon outsourced foreign recruiters and unclear partnerships for overseas searches, ART does 100% of all our own recruitment. We recruit directly in over 100 countries, and we never use any other recruitment company to find our candidates. In this way, we are able to deliver excellent candidates with the same level of efficiency and quality of service that is expected in our clients' home countries.
