Speed

    OUR APPROACH

    First, foremost, and more than anything else, understand that companies come to us when they need better results. Maybe you tried hiring on your own and got nowhere. Perhaps you actually hired someone–only to have them fail within the first 18 months. Either way, you are not alone. In fact, studies have shown that 58% of new executive hires fail within the first 18 months, a costly proposition for the organization.

    THE RIGHT EXECUTIVE SEARCH SOLUTION CAN CHANGE YOUR HIRING STATISTICS

    Second, understand that different executive search firms have different processes and standards. AOI is different in that our proprietary process, we refer to as the 5 Pillars of Success, increases the odds of long-term success. This process, if employed in its entirety, allows AOI the liberty of providing longer than industry average guarantees and provides our clients with peace of mind that we understand their operation, their human capital needs, and their vision for the future.

    Compensation Consulting

    You cannot know everything.  There are times when a consultant is invaluable. We will advise and make recommendations that will make you offer more attractive to top-level candidates. Our compensation analysis service helps our clients win the talent war.
