Our Process

Our Six-Step Recruiting Process

The same six steps, every search, whether it's your first hire this year or your fiftieth.

How We Work

Storm Search Six-Step Recruiting Process

Every search runs the same proven path, from the first scoping call through a full year of follow-up.

1

In-Depth Needs Analysis

We start with one conversation: the role, the team it joins, and the culture it has to fit.

2

Rigorous Vetting Process

We check references, verify the resume against reality, and confirm the skills hold up before a candidate ever reaches you.

3

Strategic Candidate Engagement

We go after candidates who aren't actively looking, and make the case for why this role is worth a conversation.

4

Precision Matching

We match candidates on desired skill sets, personality traits, and cultural compatibility, so the fit holds up well past day one.

5

End-to-End Guidance

We guide candidates through every stage: interview, offer acceptance, resignation, and onboarding.

6

Ongoing Success Partnership

We stay in regular contact with clients and candidates at 30, 60, 90, and 180-day intervals to catch problems early and keep the placement on track.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our process.

How quickly can you deliver candidates?

We guarantee three qualified candidates within 72 hours of kicking off a search. Most searches move even faster than that.

What industries do you specialize in?

We recruit across every vertical we serve: Accounting & Finance, Contract / Temp, Engineering, Executive Search, Human Resources, Information Technology, Legal, Manufacturing, Production, Sales Leadership, Scientific, and Supply Chain. Our team includes specialists for each one.

What is your vetting process?

Every candidate goes through the same screening: a skills assessment, reference checks, background verification, and a culture-fit conversation. If they don't clear all four, you don't see them.

What happens after placement?

We maintain ongoing communication with both you and the candidate at 30, 60, 90, and 180-day intervals. This ensures successful integration, addresses any concerns early, and maximizes long-term retention. Our relationship does not end with the hire.

How do you ensure cultural fit?

During our initial needs analysis, we dive deep into your company culture, values, and team dynamics. We assess candidates not just on skills, but on personality traits, work style, and alignment with your organizational values to ensure long-term success.

What if I am not satisfied with the candidates?

We work until we find the right fit. If the first round isn't it, we refine the search based on your feedback and keep sourcing, not until we've hit a number, until you're satisfied.
