The Cornerstone Edge

Why use Cornerstone?

Industry Experts

In today’s economy, vendors need to become business partners by way of understanding their industry as if they were the client. Cornerstone prides itself on being founded by three key executives that come from your industry. The team that surrounds these executives has been and will always be acquired because of their industry experience first. You need a recruiting vendor that understands your needs the first time around. The reason you use outside sources for talent is because you don’t have the time to find it yourself. Without this industry expertise, you will spend your time with your vendors first educating them and then letting them perform. With Cornerstone, we perform from the very beginning.

Team Based Approach

When you receive a phone call from a another recruiting firm, it is one person at a desk that will work on your requirement along with all their other clients’ requirements. At Cornerstone, when you provide us with a requirement, we will assemble a search team that will develop a search plan. This team will adhere to our 17 step process to guarantee success. This team is filled with industry experts that truly understand your needs and concerns. This team will consist of:

• Account Manager
• Project Recruiter
• Research Recruiter

This exclusive dedication from our team provides Cornerstone with a huge competitive advantage

Values Charter

In today’s market, the words ethics and values have become a huge point in marketing campaigns. Since the era of corporate deceptions, companies today have been quick to separate themselves from companies that have suffered from this reputation. At Cornerstone, ethics and values are not how we do business, it is how we live. The executives at Cornerstone believe that their work is an extension of their entire life and they will be held accountable for the way they treated others. In this industry, where there is the reputation of deception and over selling, we strive every day to ask ourselves this question, “If I were the hiring manager, what would I do.” This consultative approach doesn’t allow us to land every deal, but it does build lifelong relationships.

Dedication to Quality Assurance

This year, our executives have completed a program that will truly escalate our client feedback to a new and better level. We have organized a quality assurance group to inquire after every transaction as to how we did as a true business partner. We ask our clients to grade us on the following:

• Quality of Candidates
• Time to Fill
• Requirement Understanding
• Industry Knowledge
• Professionalism / Communication
• Adherence to our Values Charter
