Research Associate
Executive Recruitment
(Ref.No.495)


HIRING IS SUSPENDED. FEEL FREE TO SUBMIT YOUR RESUME FOR A FUTURE OPPORTUNITY.

We select Research Associates on their ability to contact people on the telephone who we typically do not know beforehand. You must be able to find names of potential candidates who could be our targets. You need to get through the "gate keeper" (that is what we call receptionists, switchboard and secretaries) to present and sell a job opportunities that will inspire the potential candidates.

Great researchers make it happen through hard work, making hundreds of telephone calls to interact with candidates, understand the opportunity gap in a candidate's current situation, determine the decision-making criteria a candidate will use to make a change, work with a candidate to help them land a better opportunity. You impress the recruitment consultants (your colleagues) by presenting top qualified candidates within a short time which they in turn can present to our external client. All that's just a highlight the things great researchers do well.

To be successful you must really love to talk to strangers and not be afraid of the telephone. You must be prepared to live with disappointments when potential candidates turn you down. You need courage and confidence.

Our recruitment procedures are well documented and guide our professional business process. We are a learning organization that emphasizes continuous training of our consultants. We only want the best. Are you one of them?

  • Good interpersonal and communications skills that "shows" over the phone.
  • Keen to learn and enjoy responsibility.

We do not sell resumes - we deliver candidates. Our approach to client service is therefore different and we do not accept taking short cuts with regards to best hiring practice for the sake of expediency.

We are multi-specialists and assist with recruitment of individuals in different types of business and at different levels of functions. Both clients and candidates are priorities to us and are treated with the utmost respect.

The Executive Recruitment section is headed by Partner and long time Thai resident Mr. Tom Sorensen. The executive recruitment team is also made up of a number of support staff and a group of senior recruitment consultants who have all been managers prior to joining Grant Thornton. Both the section and its staff are registered at the Ministry of Labour in order to comply with the Job Seeker Protection Act B.E. 1985 (a pre-requisite for recruitment firms to conduct business in Thailand).

No emails please. We wanna see if you have the courage to call as well as how you present yourself ove the phone.
