BMRS SEARCH
PROCESS
BMRS partners with both our Client Companies and our Candidates to assure mutual success. We work closely with our Client Companies to determine the exact qualifications, skills and personality traits needed in a Candidate. We then take the time to learn about a company’s culture, vision and goals. Once we understand the requirements of the position and the profile of the candidate, we commence the search. We search our proprietary database and advertise internationally but most often obtain Candidates through our extensive contacts and referrals gained from our combined 80+ years of experience in all aspects of restaurant operations and management in Southern California. Candidates are screened and interviewed extensively, often meeting with them more than once and in different settings, to ensure their goals, experience and skills are appropriate for the opportunity and culture offered by the Client. Written reference reports are prepared. We interview many Candidates for a search but will present only the most qualified for review. BMRS stays actively involved through the client interview process, coordinating meetings, obtaining additional information, and even negotiating compensation packages if requested. After a successful placement, we stay in contact with all Client Companies and placed Candidates in order to follow the new hire’s progress. Our objective is to launch long-term, successful relationships between the Candidates we place and our Client Companies. back
