What the call is
Three questions, and one of them is uncomfortable
01
What does this person actually do
Not the job description. The first ninety days, the three things that have
to be true by month six, and who they have to win over internally.
02
What happened to the last one
This is the uncomfortable one and it is the most useful. A seat that has
turned over twice is a different search from a new seat.
03
Who says yes to the offer
Most searches do not stall on candidates. They stall because the person who
signs off was never in the room. We find that out on day one.
What you get back
Inside two weeks, whether or not you sign
A read on your market: what the seat pays today, how many people fit the profile within commuting distance, and where the search is likely to break.
A salary read
A pool size
The risk
The commercials
Fees and the guarantee

[State the fee plainly, or state exactly what it depends on. Every competitor hides this behind a call, which is precisely why saying it here wins the ones who are comparing.]
