At the same time, executives being considered for the position must also be highly discreet as they negotiate with their potential future employer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>IN-DEPTH RESEARCH<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Our executive search practice is based on a national and international consulting network supported by in-depth research into the dynamics of the client\u2019s business, markets, competition, and environment. We identify sectors, companies, and sources within the target industries or functions to fulfill the client\u2019s needs. We also maintain contacts with attorneys, accountants, industry analysts and professional associations, and consultants connected with the target industries. These research activities are handled by our industry-experienced staff members who are committed to quality and confidentially.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OFF-LIMITS POLICY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Columbia Consulting Group will not recruit from a client for two years following the completion of the last search assignment, and will never recruit the candidate hired by our client.<\/p>\n<p><strong>GUARANTEE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Columbia Consulting Group will guarantee any individual hired through our assistance, for a period of one full year, so long as the position for which the candidate was hired does not materially change, at no cost to the client organization other than the candidate and consultant expenses. This guarantee will only be honored if all invoices submitted in connection with the original search have been paid in accordance with the terms stated thereon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ETHICS AND STANDARDS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Columbia Consulting Group is a member of The Association of Executive Search Consultants, Inc.
