Executive Recruitment in the USA
The success of any business organization is dependent on its employees and especially the senior leadership team. This need is particularly essential and yet challenging when non-US companies recruit senior managers for their USA based subsidiaries and business units.

Amcon has successfully recruited many US based managers for international companies, recognizing the challenges in this unique business environment. Cultural differences, physical distances and different perceptions of business challenges are only a few of the issues that need to be addressed when non-American companies open and manage US operations.
Our US executive recruitment search process includes the following steps:
- Conduct in-person meetings with company decision makers to determine actual business objectives and define a profile of the executive they seek.
- Implement a practical and objective review of the market and the competitive environment, identifying the companies whose current or former employees may be a fit for the position being filled.
- Prepare a highly specific Position Description, which will attract the best candidates.
- Identify key opinion leaders
- Aggressively network among US industry insiders, to identify potential candidates. Provide relevant candidates with information on the company and the position.
- Conduct in-depth candidate interviews.
- •Refer a “short-list” to the hiring manager who may initially conduct telephone discussions.
- Assist throughout the remainder of the search process, to include in-person interviews, reference checks and negotiations.
