CASE 1: Privately held provider of sales, marketing and merchandising to major retailers, manufacturers, and consumer goods organizations

A division of this organization, which specialized in IT customized solutions for their clients, was in need of a Division CEO and a Director of Application Development. The division was in desperate need and both searches were highly confidential.

Between the two searches, 13 candidates were produced in the first week of the search. The search was conducted during the holidays making timing very difficult, but 10 interviews were scheduled within one week and offers and acceptances were made with the candidates’ start dates within 6 weeks of beginning the search.

All interviews were scheduled for the CIO based on her schedules and all legwork handled by PinPoint personnel.
