The IQ PARTNERS Advantage
6 reasons to hire the recruiters at IQ PARTNERS for your executive search needs
Every consultant in our executive search firm interviews or assesses 750 - 1,000 people a year so we know who’s good, who’s not and why.
Our AARC™ and smartFACTOR™ assessment tools deliver the greatest insight into each candidate.
Over the past two decades we’ve recruited presidents, CEOs and even complete management teams for some of Canada’s fastest-growing companies.
Our vast network allows us to work on a local, national or global scale.
Candidates trust us as career counsellors (97.1% of our candidates rate our industry knowledge as ‘above average’) so we can often attract candidates that other firms can’t move.
We earn the trust of our clients. 81% of our clients are repeat customers.
How We Help You Recruit Better Executives
IQ PARTNERS is a targeted Executive Search firm and Recruitment agency in Toronto
We are a ‘direct-contact’ executive recruitment firm meaning we don’t just advertise your position - we proactively ’headhunt’ the superstars who will make a real difference to your team. Because the best people rarely look for their next job; they’re actively recruited. We start by using our deep executive search database and wide networks to contact and qualify 100-350 candidates for your specific search whether you’re in Toronto, Canada or worldwide. This leads to 30-50 in-depth interviews from which our headhunters identify your candidate shortlist using our SmartFactor™ assessment tools to ensure they’re the perfect fit for your organization helping you hire better, hire less and retain more.
I often tell people that they can do pretty much any search in the world - any function, any location - because their expertise in recruiting and their willingness to get out there and dive into unknown territory is so impressive. I'm a big fan of IQ PARTNERS... Thanks for everything!
IQ PARTNERS is the best executive search firm I’ve ever worked with!
We are a high performing organization… We are a very values driven culture, and IQ PARTNERS really gets that… they come across as a solutions provider, as a problem solver, as opposed to a trader in talent or people... I believe strongly that they would make a great partner to some of our other partners, and I will continue to refer them and recommend them.
Why are some companies easier to recruit from than others? IQ PARTNERS recruiters have headhunted over 100,000 people. We know which companies are easy to recruit from and which companies are not… and we’re sharing what we’ve learned!
