Hiring and training costs are considerable, especially in executive ranks. Direct costs are high, and indirect costs of an appropriate selection are even higher. When we find the best person for the job, costs drop and contribution to profitability is almost immediate.
Bill Marshall, Vice President of Executive Search, has twenty-five years of experience in executive recruitment for a broad spectrum of industries and functions. Acknowledged throughout the financial community as one of the leading experts on financial recruitment, he is regularly called upon to assist in recruiting top talent to his banking and corporate clients.
Formerly a partner in the firm of Martin Marshall, he also served as jobs director of the nationally recognized Neighborhood-by-Neighborhood program at Vocational Guidance Services of Cleveland. In this position he played a key role in identifying employment opportunities for hard-core unemployed people in the impoverished neighborhoods of the mid town corridor.
Marshall’s primary objective in his search practice is to assist his clients in making the best possible hiring decisions. For this, he depends on his proven ability to determine who will fit the company’s culture and meet its needs. The goal is RPTFT: right person the first time. He acknowledges that judging people is as much art as science and that experience is critical. Marshall’s success in this area has fostered a reputation as a trusted advisor to many business leaders.
A native Clevelander, he attended Cleveland Heights High School, graduated from University School and holds a Bachelor of Arts from Cleveland State University. |
