The Research Practitioner
– Skills Day
11 June 2015
London, UK
In the executive search profession, the process of placing
top talent with clients begins at the researcher level. To help
researchers achieve the best possible results, search-consult
brings you the 2015 Research Practitioner Skills Day. Through
highly interactive sessions, researchers will receive practical tips
and learn techniques that will make a real difference to the way
they work.
The Research Practitioner Skills Day differs from other big training
events in that attendees will be split into small groups for each
breakout session. This approach will mean that attendees have
opportunities for role play and to ask lots of questions and will
enable trainers to better address each individual’s needs. Here is
a list of the three breakout sessions you will rotate around and
the joint session:

AGENDA
The Research Practitioner Skills Day differs from other big training events in that, for the three breakout sessions, we will work in groups. This will give you the opportunity for
role play, to ask lots of questions, and the trainers will be able to address your individual needs. Therefore, rather than give you a programme for the day, here is a synopsis of
the three group sessions you will rotate around as well as a joint session further below.
Starting Your Search
(Francesca Lahiguera)
Getting the Most Out of the Internet Research
and the LinkedIn (Lois Grimshaw)
Begin your search with the end in mind. Francesca will

measure your progress, and keep your consultant and the
client aware.
In this 90 minutes session, Lois will cover the following
topics:
Part 1: Internet Search Techniques
Basic Skills
Google vs. Bing
Finding High Profile Candidates
Finding Details
'Outside the Box' Searches

How to judge that you are developing the right candidates
for the right role.
How to guide the candidate through the search process.
How to build rapport.
How to keep in touch throughout the search process.
How to manage client expectations around candidate fit.
How to turn candidates off.
How to build your network to refresh your candidate

you’re looking for.

Map out a thoughtful search strategy.
Stay organised and on-track.

with confidence.
ASK THE EXPERTS!
The day will end with a question and answer session whereby the three facilitators will
utilise their knowledge and experience to answer questions from the audience. This will
be a great opportunity for attendees to find answers to their questions and solutions to the
challenges they face day in, day out.
