The executive search market in Canada is both dynamic and highly competitive. Firms are under constant pressure to deliver outstanding candidates quickly, demonstrate deep market knowledge, and maintain long-term client relationships. To succeed, search firms in Canada need tools designed specifically for executive search — not generic recruitment.
That’s where Talentis, the executive search CRM and sourcing platform trusted by firms across Canada and worldwide, can help.
Executive search is different from traditional recruitment. Senior-level candidates in Canada are rarely applying for jobs online. Instead, search firms rely on deep market research, direct sourcing, and strong relationship management.
