The Great News. Inc.

Connecting Businesses with their people
Clients
While qualifications and experience are certainly key to assessing whether a candidate is right for the role, we take the evaluation several steps further. In our years of experience as a sales executive search agency, we’ve found that talent and charisma lend themselves to success just as much as training and degrees. When hiring a new employee, it is important to consider the impact of that hire on the rest of your staff. Consider your office culture and the personalities of your best employees. We can help you factor in whether they will be able to adapt to your way of doing business. We narrow down the candidate pool to the top talent through interviews and personality assessments. These help us to uncover essential qualities for exceptional sales professionals. These include: • Listening skills • Enthusiasm • Persistence • Relational skills We carefully analyze the specific market, identify professionals who can most effectively do the job, then, by applying time-tested evaluation criteria, narrow down the list to the best possible fit for our client. That all-important understanding comes only from our sincere ability to listen and take to heart what clients tell us compared to what potential candidates tell us they want. Like a personal shopper or custom tailor, The Great News wholeheartedly understands that each client’s experience is exceptional and highly individualized. This fundamental principle has guided us through many years of successfully serving a multitude of satisfied employers and workforce talent. The Great News is 100% privately owned, and we depend on your repeat business. Thus, we always aim for long-term placements and lasting connections.
Coaching
No matter what kind of industry you’re in, your company should have a unique selling point. This is what make your customers choose you instead of your competitors, the value you bring to the market. What differientiates you from the rest?Similarly, Employer Value Proposition or EVP is the thing that makes you unique in the eyes of potential employees. In other words, it’s an established set of values that make you a desirable employer in the eyes of potential job applicants. The Great News can help assist in establishing your top EVP's, for example: 1. Opportunity. How many opportunities are there for candidates to grow and advance their career within your organization?2. People. How good are the managers, co-workers, team leaders and what is the general atmosphere between co-workers?3. Organization. How well does your company as a whole rank in the market and with your product/service?4. Work. How fulfilling and challenging are the work duties for the position? What kind of work-life balance does the company offer?5. Rewards. What are the financial incentives for the position? Does the company have special funds for health insurance, dental and retirement? How many vacation and paid days off are there?
We love to listen and help people be passionate about their jobs, be empathic towards their employees, and be skillful as leaders. It is expensiveto recruit and training new people and then consistently replacing them. When leaders invest in current employees with mentoring, coaching, training, and developing, the employees feel valued
Candidates
Our confidential search is paramount to a successful relationship. Our exclusive arrangements allow us to be a trusted partner and maintaining that elite status is one key to our success. We understand the candidate experience is an integral part of the recruiting process. We have been in your position many times ourselves. We work on behalf of the client with the candidate and keeping searches confidential has many benefits. Our clients use confidentiality to search newly appointed positions and hire executives, not releasing the personnel change until they are ready to do so. Candidates with full time jobs have been able to find their next opportunity while not alerting their current employer of their search until they give their notice. We present your qualifications for positions that will never make the job boards and as trusted partners for our clients we have the inside track.
It all starts with being honest and clear about the job description, requirements, as well as the client company’s values and culture. We are transparent in what candidates can expect during the recruitment process. Transparency gives you control, leading you through the process with trust and confidence. By providing a clear timeline of the application process we will keep expectations in check and make sure you will not feel strung along during the process. Black holes belong in space, not in recruiting. Once you have entered the process, creating a positive candidate experience mandates that we provide you with steady and consistent communication. We keep you in the loop on what is happening, provide (and ask for) feedback once a candidate isn’t selected to move forward in the process. We put ourselves in your shoes to understand what is needed to maintain your interest and build a positive relationship. Recruiting is all about relationships. No one likes to be treated like a number. We look at the human being element in “human resources” where you should feel valued and respected. We are humans too and try to be as personal and responsive as possible while making you feel welcomed and appreciated. We use machines and software for other applications. If a prospective employer decides to make an offer, candidates arrive at one of the most important stages of the search process: the negotiation of your employment agreement. This can involve highly sensitive issues in which The Great News can play the crucial role of intermediary to ensure open and effective communication between the employer and the candidate. Use this neutral channel of communication to candidly express any concerns or special requirements that you may have relating to terms and conditions during the negotiation. When the search process is completed and you have signed on the dotted line, The Great News will stay in touch with you for 3 months to make sure that your transition into the new position is a success.

The Personalized approach

The Great News, Inc. serves as retained search consultants. For over 30 years we have successfully matched top Sales Executives and Executive Sales Management professionals. We work closely with our client companies to understand their strategic objectives, corporate culture and the expertise needed to exceed your sales goals and find your leaders of tomorrow. Our approach to developing an understanding of past performance, present standing and future objectives of both, the candidates we seek and our client companies we partner with serves as a foundation for making powerful professional matches. If you are doing it right, hiring is time consuming and takes a lot of energy out of you. That is simply how you find the best people, time and energy to find and match the holistic picture of the candidates to your vision, the job, the expectations you have. Working with a recruiter that takes the effort to get to know you and understands your company or mission at a gut level can better ferret out the foundation of commonality and interest on both parties. Our mission is a win-win-win relationship, after all it really does come down to how well a team of people integrate with each other that can make the difference between a great team and a good team. Our goal is simple to help build award winning Sales teams by finding the right people, at the right time in the right place.
