6. Methodology & Fees
We believe in using whichever methodologies are most appropriate to the assignment. This ensures the most
successful cost effective and expedient solution. We will typically recommend the use of one approach or a mix
as agreed. Our unique 4-Way Methodology™ encompasses Search, Selection, Portfolio Networking and Internet
to thoroughly search the “whole market” for talent and forms a highly effective sourcing solution.
Executive Search
A direct “headhunt” approach into a pre-selected, researched target market. Primarily useful where talent is likely
to be working in direct competitors and is secure, well rewarded and performing - the ultimate passive candidate.
It enables adoption of "hire to hurt” strategies to gain competitive advantage and market insight. Targeted search
is highly effective especially when combined with our additional sourcing methods.
Candidates sourced match your skill set and your corporate culture. We use our knowledge & experience to
identify companies employing suitable candidates. Then determine which candidates are established as being
"best in the field". We follow advanced in-house interview processes and manage the interview & offer process
to ensure successful on boarding of talent sourced.
Employing this methodology is ultimately more expedient, efficient and effective. We provide strict confidentiality,
an extensive network of contacts, objectivity in candidate evaluation, and negotiation experience and expertise.

7. Selection Advertising
 Combined with Search to reach widest talent market.
 Substantially accelerates the timescales
 An excellent marketing tool for clients
 Generate benchmarks for internal applications
 Our media discounts are passed onto you.
 Attracts candidates in a disparate population
 Range of National, Trade & International media
 Advantage in significant talent “funnel generation”
 Networking the response generates referrals to better-fit talent.
 Helps achieve true diversity and equality in the selection process.
 Can be dual branded or anonymous, utilising our recognised brand for confidentiality.
Professionally written, placed in relevant media with the respondents filtered and networked,
Selection Advertising provides a base of candidates highly motivated for the role and for your
employer brand.

9. Database & Portfolio Networking / Cross Border Searches
We manage a Global Talent Pool of Rising Stars. These individuals are highly motivated to move for the right
opportunity. We share information internally ensuring that each relevant consultant can assist on a search.
Over 25% of assignments are filled by sharing between offices and consultants, something not achieved to this level
elsewhere in the staffing industry.
By pooling our resources in each locality we can initiate seamless cross border searches across a region to secure
the best talent for a role.
Online and Social Media Recruiting
There are over 12,000 job boards competing for candidate attention in addition to your own career pages and the
social media space.
We simplify the myriad of choice. Not all executives post their details online; many use it as a shop window. In
certain areas use of the web has proved very effective. The key is knowing when and where to advertise for a role,
sector or skill set.
Web responses are networked and allowing us to handle the volumes saves you time, money and protects your
employer brand.
Bespoke Recruitment websites and funnel portals can be designed for specific campaigns.
Our global network has led to unrivalled partnerships with some of the leading career sites such as; Monster,
Stepstone, TotalJobs ,Executivesontheweb, Jobserve Globalworkplace, JobPilot, Xiaopin, 51job, Careerworld, e-
financialcareers and more local, niche sites in addition to our own job board, www.antal.com
When sourcing we also employ social networking web resources on relevant sites such as LinkedIn, Xing,
Facebook, Plaxo, Twitter, GoldenLine, Ushi.cn and others to take your role and employer brand to new areas in the
search for talent.

10. Fees
We charge fees appropriate to the position, location the amount of time, expertise and resources expended in
the successful conclusion of the recruitment solution in line with local market conditions and your budget and the
volume of hires.
Before quoting we like to understand your requirement fully, tailoring an appropriate solution and price our
services accordingly depending on the sourcing methodology and the assignment structure, e.g. retained,
contingent or variations to suit you.
Antal has the ability to integrate with clients procurement and payment systems online and offers contractors
and interim placements online timesheet facilities.
In addition we offer a replacement guarantee and actively follow up placed candidates to ensure the on-boarding
process that they experience on joining your company is working to your benefit.
Feedback is relayed to you allowing you to act early to overcome any settling-in issues. We have found that this
process can substantially aid your employee goodwill and retention.
In addition to ensure the best fit candidate, we find it useful to spend time in a client’s offices, where agreed and
practical, to take the cultural temperature of the workplace and people so we can achieve a better fit, first time
and in line with the human dynamics you have in your existing team.
We act for you to source and secure the skills you need.

11. Value Added Services, Assessment, Benchmarking and Profiling
Good decisions on recruitment, selection, training and development of their people are clear priorities for all
managers.
Where requested we recommend using our external Assessment Partners who provide fully multilingual
assessment reports and profiling tools that offer valuable help to analyse selected candidates and role/ functions
to international standards including comprehensive reporting against peers, defining role benchmarks, selection
guidance, coaching pointers, individual working patterns, characteristics and succession / future role planning.

anonymous and confidential survey of over 14,000 of our clients and gives a view into hiring
(and firing) intentions in over 50 key markets across the world.
