DEVELOP
Step 1 – Organization Interview
Marengo Hampshire Partners interviews key executives within your organization to fully understand the history, culture, future strategy, challenges, and more. We will interview the hiring manager, peers, boards, and all stakeholders in the search.
Step 2 – Position Specification and Litmus Test Development
We formulate the information gathered during the organization interviews into a detailed position description, including key competencies and criteria. The position description is used to present your opportunity to targeted candidates. The litmus test helps create the road map for the search. Criteria are developed against which each candidate is measured. Usually, there are several “must-haves” for each search and numerous “nice-to-haves”.
SOURCE
Step 3 – Strategy Development
We develop a comprehensive search map with a detailed strategy that we use to source candidates. This includes developing a target list of companies and outlining resources tailored to the industry and the role.
SELECT
Step 4 – Research and Candidate Development
Identify and contact potential candidates from the target list of companies. We present your firm and opportunity and bring thoroughly vetted candidates “to the table”. We proactively access talented passive candidates.
Step 5 – Candidate Assessment and Presentation
Rigorous and in-depth behavioral interviews are conducted with targeted candidates. A “slate” of finalists are presented.
You will be provided with a detailed written report on each slate candidate. That report will focus on the critical rankings against the detailed position specification.
Step 6 – Client Interviews
This is your opportunity to meet with and evaluate the final slate of candidates. Marengo Hampshire Partners will coordinate interviews.
Step 7 – Reference Checking
Marengo Hampshire Partners conducts in-depth reference checking for external views and provides a comprehensive report.
RETAIN
Step 8 – Offer and Negotiation
Once the finalist is selected, Marengo Hampshire Partners will facilitate the offer and negotiation process.

We are committed to providing impeccable customer service and to delivering optimal results from the beginning of a search through a candidate’s acceptance and beyond. Our dedication to our clients’ satisfaction is paramount. These values have earned us our reputation for professional excellence, confidentiality and results.
Our Guarantee
Our recruiting model is aligned to your outcome and is non-transactional. We guarantee every role for the life of the role. No other recruiting firm stands behind their work in this way.
Marengo Hampshire Partners is successful when we enable our clients to be successful, through their investment in the right human capital.
Scoping the Role
Role scope and definition is mission-critical to a successful executive search.
Most search firms and industry-focused recruiters apply standard frameworks to role definitions and incrementally add criteria specific to the client and company.
Marengo Hampshire Partners develops role specification from the ground up, with an eye on industry-standard frameworks yet completely tailored to the company’s requirements and strategic direction.
This process requires extensive investigation and stakeholder interviews, business strategy immersion, and industry and parallel company investigation. Instead of renovating an existing role, we are architects of the vision for the new role.
