These are critical phases to ensure we obtain a clear sense of the priorities and the successful hire of the right candidate. WBCP will meet with various stakeholders as warranted by the Client and the level of the position in the organization. These meetings will allow us an opportunity to gather information and gain knowledge about the organization, community and unique aspects of the recruitment to design the ideal candidate professional profile, advertising materials, and strategic approach. FEEDBACK OUTCOME/ TIMELINE DEVELOPMENT Following the Client/stakeholder meetings, we will develop a detailed timeline for the recruitment along with a proposed advertising plan for approval. CREATIVE DEVELOPMENT Immediately following the client feedback activities, we will draft the competencies for the recruitment and advertising material/recruitment brochure for the Client's review. This information will summarize what was learned from Client -related interviews and will be used to advertise the opening. PHASE II MARKETING STRATEGY AND IMPLEMENTATION WBCP will execute a customized marketing/ad plan once the job announcement is created. An ad plan could include the following (based on assumptions), and will be customized based on information gathered in Phase I: UNLINt HUVERTISING — Including local and national job boards, associations, and other industry related job postings targeting ideal candidates; job boards that reach a desired geographic area and reach a diverse ethnicity. E -DIRECT MAIL ADVERTISING — including WBCP's current database of potential applicants, we have access to other professional lists and will source more lists through associations, contacts, etc. SOURCING/HEAD HUNTING - WBCP will contact individuals targeted and generate new contacts through referrals made by respected sources. WBCP is a Linkedln recruiter and we have access to over 350 million profiles via Linkedln to assist us in targeting ideal candidates. COMMUNICATION WITH CLIENT Depending upon the wishes of the Client, we can provide regular updates on the progress of the search. We tailor our communications in accordance with our Client's needs. W B C P Confidential PHASE III RESUME ASSESSMENT WBCP will review resumes as they are received and/or at the close of the recruitment. Those candidates determined to be the most highly qualified will be selected for a screening interview. SCREENING INTERVIEWS/ REPORT TO CLIENT WBCP does not restrict the number of applicants or candidates to be screened. Rather, we interview candidates who meet our ideal candidate criteria; frequently this group amounts to 20 candidates, or on average 20% of the applicant pool. Following the completion of the phone screen interviews, we will develop a report/recommended short list of candidates, which includes: resumes, cover letters and a one-page profile summary of candidate's professional history, including a brief overview of WBCP's assessment and the results of their phone screen. We will meet with the selection committee/Client to review this report and select candidates for interviews. In this meeting we will review the recruitment plan and discuss the final stages of the selection process. COMMUNICATION WITH CANDIDATES WBCP will take responsibility for communicating with the applicants/candidates during each phase of the search process and Client should refer any inquiries from potential or existing applicants directly to WBCP. PHASE IV SELECTION PROCESS WBCP will design and administer an appropriate final selection process based on the needs of the Client (tailored to the need and recruitment). WBCP will facilitate the invitation and coordination of these meetings/interviews and provide additional assessment tools/recommendations such as interview questions, writing and presentation exercises, problem solving scenarios, etc. BACKGROUND & REFERENCES Following the interviews and the Client's top candidate(s) selection, we will assist the Client with facilitating a thorough background and reference check. A typical approach includes a review of federal, state and local criminal background checks and academic verification by a licensed background agency. Reference checks are conducted over the phone by a senior consultant and a final report is provided to the Client. References are completed on candidate(s) being considered after initial/panel interviews. NEGOTIATIONS Once the client reviews and is comfortable with the findings in the background and reference report, we are available to assist with negotiations on compensation, benefits, start date and other transition details. 9 WBCP Confidential VI.
