CANDIDATE PRE-SEARCH ASSESSMENT

Thank you for contacting Mee Derby & Company during your current job search. Mee Derby specializes in placing Executives, Managers, Salespeople, and Recruiters in Staffing Services, Professional Services, and Human Capital Management.

After conducting thousands of searches for hundreds of national, regional and local companies since 1988, our clients have come to rely on Mee Derby to provide them with well-qualified, carefully screened candidates. We know from experience that this Pre-search Assessment will help us find the best candidates for the positions our clients are trying to fill.

To expedite our interview process, we would like you to complete the information below. Be assured that we maintain the strictest privacy and confidentiality in our search work and that all material and information provided by you will be secure.

Please return your answers to the following questions, and the completed Reference Release Form, to Eliza Deang via email or fax (301-320-7786) as soon as possible. We look forward to working with you in your current search.

  1. What is motivating your decision to make a job change?
  2. Describe your recent search activities. In order for us not to duplicate your on-going efforts, please include any information about interviews and/or offers you have declined or have pending, as well as the types of positions you are considering.
  3. Describe in detail your ideal next position. What activities would you be responsible for, whom would you report to, what types of projects would you handle? The more detail you provide the more help Mee Derby can be to you in finding the type of position you are seeking.
  4. Where are you willing to work? How far are you willing to travel to and from work? Are you willing to relocate? If yes, to what area?
  5. What is your total compensation package? Please include base, bonus, incentives, stock, etc, and list each separately. List W-2’s for last 3 years with base salaries for each. What type of package do you expect in your next move? Please make sure that you can substantiate the information provided regarding earnings that you will indicate here. Many of our clients will request a hard copy of the W-2’s to confirm the salary information.
  6. When you notify your present employer that you are leaving, would you expect a counter-offer? Have you ever been given a counter offer? Did you accept it or turn it down? Why?
  7. Do you have a non-compete and/or non-solicitation contract/agreement with previous employment? If yes, will you be able to provide us a copy if requested by the client? What are the limitations and terms of that non-compete?

REFERENCES RELEASE FORM

All Mee Derby clients require business, peer, and client references from prospective candidates. Signing the disclosure statement below allows us to check your references, which will be done only when we deem it necessary to further the placement process or to verify information you have given us. Reference information is always kept in the strictest professional confidence. Any references that you fear might jeopardize your current employment will not be conducted unless and until we have your approval.

Please provide us with the names, telephone numbers, and titles of at least three references - ideally your current and former Managers, and one client. Briefly describe your relationship to these references. If you are working, we realize that in most cases you cannot use your current supervisor as a reference. Supervisors from a previous employer are acceptable, as are trusted peers in your current company. You will be notified before any references are contacted, or your resume is presented to any of our clients.
