Service
Reverse Recruiting
A managed search, from positioning to offer, run alongside you.
Who it is for
Typically very senior professionals, those targeting an international or relationship-gated market, or those with no realistic bandwidth to run a search themselves.
The situation
Some searches stall because the person with the experience has no time, or no access, to run them well.
What CareerEdge helps with
- Discovery and search-positioning setup
- CV rebuilt around the target market
- Full LinkedIn overhaul
- Cover letter strategy
- Targeted opportunity sourcing
- Recruiter and hiring-manager outreach
- Network activation where relevant
- Live application pipeline with recurring search reviews
- Interview preparation, offer evaluation and salary negotiation strategy
How the engagement unfolds
- Phase 1, setup: discovery, CV rebuild, LinkedIn overhaul, cover letter strategy and a target-company plan
- Phase 2, managed search: we identify relevant job openings and share them with you, you choose which positions to pursue, and we submit applications on your behalf, with recruiter and hiring-manager outreach and warm network outreach where relevant, a dedicated CareerEdge recruiter resource, a live application tracker and recurring pipeline reviews
- Phase 3, interview and offer support: role-specific preparation, offer evaluation and salary negotiation strategy
What it does not cover
A placement. Hiring decisions are not ours to make, and no service promises an outcome.
- Reverse Recruiting is not the default recommendation for every stalled job search.
- Whether it fits is something we work out with you on a call, and we would rather say it is not right for you than take on a bad fit.
What managed outreach means
A structured, managed search
Our team contacts recruiters and hiring managers on your behalf and manages your application pipeline, with a live application tracker and recurring pipeline reviews. Your search keeps moving without you having to run every step, and the scope is agreed with you in a proposal first.
