Questions boards ask us.
DHRS is an executive search firm and leadership hiring consultants for boards, promoters and CEOs in India and abroad.
What does an executive search firm do?
An executive search firm finds senior leaders who are not looking for a move. We map the market, approach sitting leaders in confidence, assess them in depth and validate them through referencing before you meet anyone. A recruitment agency, by contrast, mostly shortlists active applicants.
Which roles does DHRS search for?
CEO and Managing Director roles, CXO roles (CFO, COO, CHRO, CTO, CIO and Chief Sales Officer), Country Heads, Business Unit Heads, Plant Heads and Functional Heads, across 18+ industries.
How long does a leadership search take?
First assessed profiles reach you within 15 working days. Most leadership searches take 2 to 3 weeks from brief to offer when the candidates are passive. Board and CXO searches take 4 to 6 weeks.
Do you search outside India?
Yes. Alongside India, we run leadership searches across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain, and in South East Asia, Africa and the United States.
Will my search stay confidential?
Yes. Every search is confidential by default, and we agree with you at the start what can be shared with candidates, and when.
