6 WHAT WE DO EXECUTIVE SEARCH ADVISORY SERVICES 6

7 EXECUTIVE SEARCH Talent is our expertise. We look forward to sharing it with you. WE ARE PASSIONATE about search because we see the value it brings to all stakeholders. Whether it s for an executive or management role, every search should be considered a strategic one. To this end, we strive to ensure that both the client and the candidate are making the right move. After all, their success is our success. The best result is a win-winwin all around. To our colleagues, understanding the importance of fit is not just a cliché. Fit can make or break an opportunity, not just at the executive level, but at all levels throughout the company. Our advantage is that we have a vertical understanding of our client s organizations. With this perspective, we can conduct more targeted searches that take into consideration not just the necessary skills, but also the element of fit. Search is not just about filling jobs. It s about making your business stronger and more successful by complementing your brand and culture with the right talent. Talent is our expertise, and we look forward to sharing it with you. 7

12 CLIENT TESTIMONIALS GARDA Over the past five years, we have used the services offered by Mandrake and some of the members affiliated with their IESF network to find executive candidates for a number of our offices and branches throughout North America, including Montreal, Chicago, Boca Raton, Los Angeles and New York. The team at Mandrake has always managed to find us the perfect candidates, be it to fulfill our finance needs or to fill our operational positions. Their consultants have proven to be capable partners with their turnkey approach, helping us find just the right talent to achieve our goals. President & CEO, GARDA BELRON CANADA LAURENTIAN BANK Mandrake Consulting Group has, time and time again, been a critical talent acquisition partner for many strategic positions within our organization. Their professionalism and timeliness enabled us to interview top notch candidates and hire people from their initial list. With their knowledge of the financial industry and the culture within Laurentian Bank, Mandrake was able to effectively meet our needs. Their dedication and outstanding follow-up on our candidate files are major assets in recruiting our employees. We strongly recommend the services of their team. My first experience with the Mandrake Group was in 2009 during an executive search, my first recruitment after coming to Canada as President of Belron. Since then, Mandrake has successfully fulfilled three undertakings and is my preferred partner for all my executive recruitment needs. Mandrake has a very comprehensive knowledge of the market, but more than that, the firm invested time in getting to know us, our needs and our culture to make the recruitment a success, not only for our company but for the candidate as well. I found their approach to be both professional and personal, which sets them apart as an exceptional firm just like the candidates we want to recruit.
