WELCOME...
Thank you for visiting ESS on the Web. Review the brief
summary below and take a moment to explore the rest of
the site. In addition to information on ESS there are
tips for executive candidates, many useful links to other
web pages and discussion groups, news items and more... A
few words to prospective candidates;
- ESS, unlike
many other firms and services on the web,
does not release background information
forwarded by any candidate to any third party
without the prior express permission of that
candidate.
- This same
policy applies to all professionals ESS works
with regardless of the means of recruitment.
Should you decide to contact ESS, any
conversation or correspondence will be
treated as personal and confidential by ESS.
- All ESS
services are retained by corporate clients.
There are never any fees required from any of
the executive candidates ESS works with under
any circumstances.
SOME GENERAL NOTES TO
POTENTIAL EXECUTIVE CANDIDATES:
- ESS is a
retained search firm and executive recruitment service. By that we mean ESS is
retained by confidential corporate clients to
recruit executive talent for specific
permanent positions.
- ESS lists a
limited number of these open position
descriptions in the News, Positions and Career Map
sections of this web to give you an idea of
the types of professionals ESS is seeking.
- If you feel you
qualify for one of these positions you can
reach ESS through the contact information
link.
- If you feel you
have a colleague or acquaintance that may be
interested in one of these positions you can
also refer that individual confidentially to
ESS. Your identity will not be revealed to
the candidate or any other party unless you
deem it appropriate.
Q: What if my
background is not a fit for any of the listed
positions?
A: If you feel participation in the ESS Talent Pool
makes sense as part of your overall career strategy your submittal is welcome.
- Review the
contents of this web site to determine if
contacting ESS would be beneficial to your
career.
- The Executive
Summary page contains a table
which summarizes the ESS search practice
sectors.
- Most ESS
candidates are senior executives in
engineering, construction or hi-tech with
salaries in the six figure range and above.
- Most Talent Pool
participants have graduate level degrees. Review the Talent
Pool
page for more details on how it works.
- ESS conducts
searches for international and domestic
positions in marketing, management, project
management and technical disciplines.
Q: I presently
hold a senior level position - am I welcome?
A: ESS encourages
your participation. The Talent Pool was designed for
executives presently managing day to day operations.
- Practicing
professionals are encouraged to contact ESS
and enter the Talent Pool.
- The Talent Pool
confidentiality policy was created for just
this purpose.
- The best time
to forward a resume: when your sector is
in or anticipating a growth phase and you are
presently practicing in an executive
capacity.
- The talent Pool
is designed for passive candidates, that is
to say executives who are presently not
actively seeking a career transition, but
would be interested in reviewing appropriate
opportunities should they become available.
Q: I am a recent MBA - does the
talent pool make sense for me?
A: Although most Talent Pool members are
senior executives, recent MBA's with a program emphasis on technology, the international sector
or engineering and construction experience are encouraged to participate.
- Professionals who have
experience practicing
with a Consulting Firm and have recently completed a
graduate program are especially encouraged to participate
in the ESS Talent Pool.
- Recent MBA's with an emphasis
in international studies, and those with fluency in multiple
languages and prior experience in international locals are also
encouraged to participate in the Talent Pool.
Q: I am an
international executive practicing outside of the
United States - am I welcome?
A: ESS encourages
your participation. Professionals from around the world are
represented in the Talent Pool.
- ESS has
conducted international assignments in many
regions of the world and welcomes global executive talent.
- Please forward correspondence and resumes in
English, or provide a translation with the original copy.
Q: I am conducting
an active job search for a new position and
I have to move quickly - Is the Talent Pool the right
resource?
A: The ESS Talent
Pool should be viewed as an overall career transition
strategy.
- Please be aware
that the ESS Talent Pool is not an employment service,
outplacement option or job site, but rather a service
retained by corporate and consulting clients,
and a utility used by ESS in the execution of
search projects.
- As such, a
submittal to the ESS Talent Pool is an
overall strategic career move and networking option, rather than a
tactic in a specific, active job search.
- The Talent Pool is designed as
a tool for passive executive candidates who are interested in
exploring appropriate opportunities as they may arise, but are
not undertaking an urgent, active job search.
- For those who are active candidates, aggressively
engaged in an
ongoing job search, The ESS Talent Pool may not be the best option.
Unless the requirements of a listed position are closely met, the
effort will most likely not produce the desired result.
Forward
your resume to ESS:
- If you have a
particular career goal, a specific company or
group of companies that you would like to be
a part of or a geographic region that is a
priority please indicate this information
clearly in a cover letter which preferably will be forwarded
as an email attachment along with your resume.
- There may be an
appropriate position in the future-if so you will be contacted for permission to
release information on your background to the
ESS client at that time.
- Should a mutual
interest develop meetings and interviews will
be scheduled.
- Until then any
information you forward will be treated as
personal and confidential and will not be
released to any third party.
- Although a formal resume is
preferred, ESS understands some senior executives may not have
such a document at the ready. While one is under development
the resume builder can
provide you a means of entering the Talent Pool.
Regarding your contact
information:
- ESS recommends and requests specifically
that you include a personal, private
email address .
- Be aware that should ESS need to reach you
this email address will be the first point of contact and if it does not
function you may not receive another notice.
- You could be contacted in the future,
perhaps six months or more from now. If the email address you have
provided is no longer active, you will likely miss the opportunity.
- ESS will not forward Spam email to this
address or sell, trade or lease this email address to any third party -
nor will you be automatically enrolled in any email service.
- Without an appropriate email
address as part of your profile, your submission is
ineffectual.
A special
Note regarding third Party Resume Services and Bulk Email:
- Unfortunately
ESS does not accept resumes identified as being forwarded by
third parties, executive agents or resume services.
- Messages of these types are
routinely indexed out and deleted from the ESS Talent
Pool.
- Correspondence recognized as
bulk email will also not be accepted.
- Only personal correspondence
and email addressed uniquely to ESS is accepted.

aware of what's going on?
A: You can subscribe to ESS NEWS

to the Talent Pool, ESS will contact you
directly should an opportunity identified as appropriate for
