The direct approach of potential candidates for a particular management position has become the world wide “method” to place for top & middle management positions. The foundation for an executive search is the in-depth knowledge of specific markets, a large and structured database on industries and potential candidates: local national management as well as Expatriates – foreign managers, and Repatriates – people of local nationality who left their countries years ago for professional, personal and/or political reasons and who are now returning to their home countries.

Therefore, the heart of an Executive Search company is the Research Department! This department compiles and collects information regarding the industrial fields and of course regarding the potential candidates. Our consultants need to possess proven management experience in various industrial fields, but also the necessary evaluation and assessment knowledge for the selection of the best candidates.

Stein & Partner has worked in all the business segments for the past 16 years and successfully closed over 1500 international projects in the region. Throughout or presence on the market, we have built our solid experience mainly in the following fields:

• Fast Moving Consumer Goods
• Retail
• IT- and Telecommunications
• Automotive
• Finance and Banking
• Pharmaceuticals
• Industry/Manufacturing
• Services

But besides the above mentioned, the most important issue regarding the human resources field is the correct understanding of our clients for the position that has to be filled. Of not less importance is to provide consultancy in the specific local issues, such as the salaries level, labor contracts, as well as the evaluation of the personal caracter of the candidate and reference checking. We also support our clients in these issues.
