Our work with Carnall Farrar
Our team have supported Carnall Farrar with their recruitment requirements since our inception in 2021. In that time, we have sourced seven candidates for the firm on both a contract and permanent basis. We’ve recruited for them across a range of seniorities, including Consultant, Manager, Senior Analyst and Associate Partner.
Challenges in the recruitment market
The strategy consulting recruitment market is a tough space to navigate for a number of reasons.
1) It’s rare for Consultants to directly apply to job adverts. Since they are in such high-demand, it’s more common for them to pursue opportunities when approached by a headhunter.
2) Due to the set structure of consulting career paths, there are set periods when Consultants pursue a job search. This means that when top candidates do look for a new role, they often have multiple interview processes at once.
Having an external talent partner onboard can help overcome these challenges.
Working in true partnership
We have regular check-ins with the hiring team to ensure we’re always aware of their current recruitment needs. Our team have built a deep understanding of the firm, their company culture and what they’re searching for in their hires. This means that we can regularly supply them with excellent talent.
