For candidates listed as frei verfuegbare Fachkraefte, the firm offers a simplified fee model of one monthly salary for BVMW members or two monthly salaries otherwise. Its methodology begins with a detailed role briefing to refine requirements, followed by targeted research across an internal candidate pool, direct outreach to network contacts, personal referrals, and a proprietary algorithm used for sourcing via social networks. Applications are pre-screened, a client-specific question set can be administered, interviews are coordinated, and participation in client interviews is available on request, with continual feedback loops to sharpen the search. The firm has successfully filled roles such as Bereichsleiter Kabelkonfektionierung, Geschaeftsfuehrer (including an overseas mandate in the USA), Vertriebsleiter, Vertriebsingenieur for CNC machine tools, and technical sales positions, with time-to-hire ranging from two to ten months and client testimonials from companies such as Aufzugbau Dresden GmbH and Feingeratebau K.
