Our decades of relationship building find the one that matters to you.

Each search begins with an engagement meeting to fully understand your position requirements; your Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion objectives; and the nuances of your company culture.

We develop a custom search plan to find candidates, leveraging our experience and technology, personally reaching out to them to identify potential fits. This first personal impression on the candidate is often critical.

Company president Chuck Durakis individually interviews candidates to assess not only their skills, but to know them as a person and assess their fit for the client company culture. This builds trust in the candidate, which contributes to successful negotiations later.

Durakis Executive Search provides a thorough candidate overview to our clients, so they can put on their “recruiter-marketing hat” and best position themselves to the candidate during introductions and interviews.

Chuck personally conducts reference checks to uncover any unforeseen challenges. While it seems like a simple step, this cannot be overlooked as it can uncover information that can influence the search as a whole.

Once a candidate is selected, Chuck personally facilitates negotiation of compensation, leveraging the trust that has built over the entire process. This allows for a final agreement that is in the best interest of both client and candidate.
