Our Approach

At DB Talent Search, we believe successful recruitment is built on true partnership. We take the time to gain a deep understanding of your business — its challenges, opportunities, and long-term goals — as well as the aspirations and motivations of the candidates we engage with. This allows us to create meaningful matches that benefit both your organisation and the individuals we place.

Our process includes:

  • Market Mapping & Talent Sourcing: Identifying top talent, including passive candidates.

  • Advertising: Targeted campaigns to attract the right candidates.

  • Initial Screening: Thorough vetting to ensure strong alignment.

  • Competency-Based Interviews: Assessing candidates’ skills and cultural fit.

  • Reference Checking: Confirming qualifications and experience.

  • Client-Candidate Coordination: Managing seamless interview processes.

  • Presenting Shortlists: Delivering curated shortlists with key insights.

  • Offer Management & Acceptance: Facilitating smooth offer negotiations and ensuring a positive acceptance process.

  • After-Placement Care: Providing support after the placement to ensure both the client and candidate are satisfied and expectations are met.
