OUR
RECRUITMENT
FOCUS IN INDIA
We recruit
experienced,
world-class Local and
Expatriate Senior
Managers for Leading
Companies,
in charge of
India-level, South
Asian Regional, or for
wider Indo-Pacific
Regional
responsibilities.
We also might consider
very internationally
experienced local
candidates for
positions outside the
country, such as for
senior and middle
management roles in
the Middle East or
Africa.
In India we accept
searches only for
well-established
American, Western
European, Korean and
Japanese firms, for
positions that would
be based in India.
We recruit people who
can act as Sole
Contributors or as
managers capable of
running large
departments or
business units.
ART conducts
India-wide as well as
global executive
search assignments
related to positions
in India. While
our preference is
to find the best
possible candidates at
our clients'
competitors in the
same city as their
facility, if
necessary, ART
recruiters are easily
able to consider a
larger all-India
candidate base. In
addition, ART recruits
within the NRI
(non-resident Indian)
communities of the
United States, Canada,
the United Kingdom,
Australia, Singapore,
Malaysia, and other
countries.
Such
candidates often have
Western university
education or business
culture
exposures that
may allow for an
easier two-way
communication between
headquarters and the
management of the
Indian business unit.
Our emphasis is to
find managers who
perform well
in accordance with the
business
culture of the
foreign company. Most
of our Indian
candidates have worked
in senior roles at
leading foreign firms,
thereby increasing the
chances of their
success the new
position.
We take particular
care to try to find
people who are
accustomed to working
in a business model
that resembles that of
the client company. A
person who works well
at a top, large firm,
for example, might not
be the right person as
employee #1 at a
foreign greenfield
business unit in
India.
Our
objective is to find
candidates who are
sensitive to both the
business culture of
the home company and
to that of the local
Indian customer and
staff. The objective
is to find a leader
whom the foreign
company can trust to
run their business,
while effectively
reaching local
customers and
employees in a way
that they will find
comforting.

A
Very Critical
Difference between
ART and our
competitors in
India: unlike
nearly every
single Indian
recruitment firm,
ART has never used
advertisements to
find candidates
for our clients.
- Advertising is,
at best, a
hit-or-miss,
luck-based
recruitment
strategy. If a
recruitment firm
relies on
advertising, they
are not doing
executive search.
They are merely
placing
advertisements and
poorly trained
clerks are left to
determine if
candidates fit the
client's needs.
This kind of
standard might be
acceptable for
general labor
recruitment but it
is far too risky
for international
corporations to
rely on such
slapdash methods
in order to find
their Head of
Sales, or to find
their next
Regional Managing
Director, for
example.
- ART
client companies
do not hire us to
be lucky. ART is
an American
executive search
firm founded in
1987. Our
recruiters are all
"headhunters," not
advertisement-placers.
Our clients hire
us because we know
candidates in the
right locations
and at the right
companies.. These
are candidates
whom we have known
for years, and in
the event that
they are not
available, they
are people whom we
can rely on to
refer us to even
more suitable
candidates. These
relationships grow
from years of
trust.. Good
candidates
recommending other
good candidates.
Our clients look
to us for these
informed "insider"
contacts.
- Our
clients hire us
because we know
the profiles that
will work well for
their company's
critical
Asia-Pacific
business mission.
How do we have
this special
knowledge? It
comes from our
firm recruiting in
our clients'
industries and
markets on a
global and
regional scale for
decades. We
therefore have
seen business
models that work
well and business
models that
failed. We
understand the
kind of profiles
that are likely to
bring success for
our new clients,
based on our
experiences
witnessing many
similar business
models.
- This
is what
experience,
professionalism
and good business
ethics brings:
success for our
clients, and
success for our
candidates'
careers.
