Gaia’s Search Strategy Executes a Thorough, Targeted & Proactive Search Process

Gaia assertively seeks out, targets and works hard to proactively attract and recruit the most viable candidate for every search - including those candidates who are not actively looking for another job.

At the outset of each client engagement, Gaia’s team meets with and begins collaborating with key client stakeholders to explore the ideal qualities desired in a candidate, compensation parameters, geographical preferences and role responsibilities.

  • Gaia combines our own deep industry networks with advanced research capabilities to leave no stone unturned in finding the right leaders.

  • Gaia’s pledge to every client is to present a diverse, inclusive and well-qualified slate of candidates on every search assignment.

  • Gaia thoroughly assesses each candidate for indications that meet the needs and aspirations of each client.
