Progress is the French leader of Executive Search


Our expertise

Progress accompanies its clients in the recruitment by direct approach of executives, board members and experts with the ambition to be a partner with a long-term professional relationship and a constant concern for excellence and quality.

Our approach, which is based on absolute confidentiality, consists of several steps that are crucial to the success of any assignment.

Our approach

Stakes and context

An in-depth discussion with the client allows us to get to know the company, its history, its culture, its human resources and its products.

Specifications

The information gathered during this discussion is used to draw up a list of requirements, including a description of the position to be filled and the profile sought.

Search

Using a list of target firms compiled with the client, Progress identifies, approaches, interviews, assesses and selects the candidates best suited for the position. This process is generally carried out by a team made up of a consultant and a researcher.

Analysis

For each candidate proposed, Progress provides the client with a complete file presenting the candidate’s career path, interests and assets as regards the position.

Consulting and assistance

Progress assists the client in the final choice.

Monitoring

Progress works closely with the client and the successful candidate during their integration into the new work environment.

Our guarantee

To provide its clients with high-premium services, Progress makes a firm commitment in terms of timeframes, quality, confidentiality and transparency. Our professionalism is grounded in these commitments and it guarantees a lasting and trusting relationship with our clients.

Our conditions for involvement are clearly laid out in a contract binding the firm and the client.

Progress undertakes to observe the strictest confidentiality throughout its executive search operations.

Progress undertakes to submit the results of its search and pre-selection of candidates no later than three to four weeks after the contract and the list of requirements have been signed.

Progress is always in a position to keep the client informed of mission developments.

The client may interrupt the mission at any time.

Progress will resume the search at no extra charge if the candidate hired within the scope of the mission leaves the client within six to twelve months, depending on the hierarchical ranking of the position.

Progress will refrain from offering new positions to the client’s employees for a period of one year.

Progress, in accordance with the law, will not accept any form of discrimination whether it be name, age, gender, belonging or not to any particular race, ethnicity or nation, ones origin, religion, place of residence, familial situation, sexual orientation or identity, physical appearance, mores, genetic characteristics, health, disability, belonging or not to a syndicate or a political party.
