Executive assessment:
Potential analysis and profile matching

Making the right choice with the TMS profile

In the process of identifying and selecting top-tier executives, we extend our approach beyond personal interviews and references with an optional executive assessment using the TMS profile. Developed by distinguished British organizational psychologists Charles Margerison and Dick McCann in the 1980s, the internationally recognized TMS profile provides valuable insight into role compatibility, team development and cultural alignment - essential factors for the long-term placement success. We use the TMS profile as a scientifically substantiated decision-making tool in our Executive Search and leadership advisory services. It enables us to make informed choices when appointing the ideal individuals to fill challenging management positions.

Interim to permanent recruiting

Smooth transition

Departer provides interim candidates to ensure uninterrupted business operations during transitional phases. This minimizes disruptions and potential revenue loss. Our expertise in interim to permanent recruiting provides not only temporary solutions but also facilitates the seamless transition towards the ideal permanent placement. Our experienced consultants adeptly guide you through this process.

Onboarding

Onboarding excellence for a smooth start

At Departer, our commitment does not end with signing the contract. A well-structured onboarding process is crucial for the sustained success of the placement. This is why we accompany the integration of the executive we have placed. We develop an onboarding roadmap in close collaboration with you to ensure the new executive is thoroughly prepared. Regular check-ins guarantee swift acclimatization and the fulfillment of expectations. Experience top-tier onboarding management with Departer:
