From Search to Selection, We Help You Get It Right
Selecting a leader is one of the most important decisions an organization will make, and how that process is structured matters as much as the outcome.
As former local government leaders, we’ve supported governing bodies, partnered with executive teams, and served in the roles being filled. We understand the expectations on both sides of the table and design searches that reflect how your organization operates and makes decisions.
We lead a clear, structured process from start to finish: defining the position, advising on compensation, managing candidate evaluation, and guiding final selection. Throughout, we keep the work organized and moving forward to ensure both decision-makers and candidates have a professional, well-run experience.
The result is a process you can stand behind and a leader who is prepared to step in and do the job.
Recruitment Options
Best for organizations seeking a national candidate pool or facing a more competitive or hard-to-fill search.
Full Recruitment
Full Recruitment includes a fully managed search process led by EverStrive, combined with proactive, targeted outreach to identify and engage candidates beyond those actively applying. This approach is designed for roles where expanding the candidate pool is critical, whether due to market conditions, compensation constraints, or the need to reach passive candidates.
We lead a structured, step-by-step process that includes stakeholder engagement, profile development, candidate recruitment, evaluation, interviews, and final selection support. In addition, we implement a comprehensive sourcing strategy that actively identifies and recruits qualified candidates nationwide.
Most searches are completed within approximately 12 weeks, with a process that is organized, transparent, and designed to support a strong final decision.
Best for organizations with a strong applicant pool that need a clear, well-run process to guide decision-making.
MANAGED SEARCH
Managed Search is designed to function as an extension of your HR team. We manage the front end of the recruitment process, handling the posting, applicant tracking, and initial evaluation while providing structure and guidance through each stage of the search.
This includes managing the job posting and application process, reviewing and organizing applicant materials, conducting an initial screening and evaluation of candidates, and providing recommendations for next steps. We remain involved as an advisor throughout interviews and final selection to ensure the process stays organized, consistent, and aligned.
The result is a streamlined, well-managed process that supports clear decision-making—typically completed within a 12-week timeframe.
