What should I bring to an interview? Unless a client specifies otherwise, please bring the following: resume, references and depending on position you may need to bring samples of your work.

What positions do you recruit for? To see a sample list of positions, please refer to our Technical Recruiting page. This covers contract and full time positions.

What is your relationship with the mentioned company? The nature of the relationship between Executive Levels International and our client company, how and when the search process will be conducted, and the role of the consultant in the search process.

Why can’t you tell me the name of the company? In some instances we may be conducting a confidential search. In that case, only qualified candidates who want to be submitted have the contractual right to know. Those that do not qualify will still remain confidential in our database.

I already have an offer I like, can I still apply to a job on the site? Unless you turn down your other job, it is not fair or ethical to go through the process of applying for another position. We do not believe in counteroffer situations like this.

I am a contractor but don’t want to be a 1099? We offer employer of record services for just that situation. You can find and work with your own clients and our back office takes care of the billing etc. You get all of the benefits.

What about my confidentiality? Discretion is used at all times when the search consultant shares information about the candidate to a prospective employer. The search consultant will also honor the candidate’s request that specific information not be disclosed to the client. Executive Levels will present a candidate’s credentials to those searches that most closely match his/her qualifications.

Do I need to be a technical professional to use your employer of record services? No, any type contract position can be serviced by our back office.

I submitted my resume but didn’t get a call? You must be aware that due to volume and the strict qualifications we must adhere to, the recruiter is authorized by the client company and may choose not to present any candidate based on a professional judgment that the candidate is not qualified or appropriate for the client company’s position. Candidates who are not offered the position can expect that their files will be kept confidential by the search consultant/recruiter.

Are all of your jobs posted? Not all of our jobs are posted on the website. This could be due to time constraints, confidentiality or just having multiple positions in the same technical area that is is why it is extremely important to register so we know you are out there.

How much information can I expect to be given regarding your client? You will be told by the search consultant specific and accurate information about the position prior to the initial interview. This information will include: job title, company background, business conditions, reporting relationships, location, and responsibilities of the positions. Exceptions would be an executive search where more details are usually given.

I received and offer and accepted, can I resign? All offers are contingent upon successful completion of reference checks or special testing as requested by the client company or by the client company. Reference checks will not be completed without the candidate’s approval. No action will ever be taken by the search consultant to jeopardize the candidate’s present position.

How will I know the status of my submission? You will be kept informed of your candidacy status in a timely fashion by the consultant.

Will you contact me after I start my position? You should expect to be contacted during the first six months after joining our client company to ensure that any adjustment problems on either side are handled appropriately depending on the type of position.

You submitted me for a job a while ago and I haven’t heard any feedback. This drives us crazy also. There are some instances where a client takes much longer than our agreed upon term. This can be due to changes at the company, changes being made to the position, vacation schedules etc. We try to stay in touch during this time but it is also just as important that you communicate with us if anything changes in your status or availability.
