Boost Employee Engagement and Reduce Turnover with Direct Retention

Direct Retention is a Pay-for-Performance Retained Search model that focuses on sourcing, acquiring, assessing, delivering, and retaining hard to find Senior Level Executives and other key professionals who are vital to the success of your company.

Guaranteed Retention for a Year

Direct Retention was designed to enable organizations to hire the best executive talent with confidence and limited financial risk. We know the pressure you’re under to find the right leaders and will only present those candidates who are the best fit and have been fully vetted by us and our independent consultants. Our independent specialists do their best to ensure a smooth transition for both the candidate and client alike. Their areas of expertise include:

  • Skills and cultural assessments backed by science and analytics
  • Compensation studies to ensure offers and benefits packages extended to candidates are competitive. In addition, assisting clients with creating a package that candidates would find acceptable
  • Legal support to establish whether the best candidates are under any enforceable contractual, statutory, or common law restrictions from their last employer
  • Relocation assistance and consulting to ensure a smooth onboarding and transition

No other executive search firm approaches our level of service or retention guarantee, without contingencies, on top of our long history as being a leader in executive search.

We are more than just retained executive recruiters; we are hiring and retention specialists for companies that are looking for impactful executives.

Testimonial

Working with DRI’s Direct Retention program and services exceeded my expectations. What I was most pleased with was the fact that DRI did not inundate me with candidates. They kept me out of the process until the very end. At that point it was very clear that DRI had a handful of qualified candidates. That helped me optimize my time utilization, which was the most important thing from a process perspective. The second most important thing in this process was that DRI was able to do this in the timeframe we agreed on. Compared to other recruiters, DRI actually did the real work of screening candidates instead of just spending 6 weeks e-mailing me 3 times a day with resumes. I wanted someone who would provide the HR function of a true skilled recruiting effort, and DRI did a great job with that. I would and already have recommended DRI’s Direct Retention program and services to others.”
