The challenge
Our client is a global engineering company specialising in a particular type of engineering. They were going through some changes in the Asia Pacific region and needed to hire a new lead for the region. At first the opportunity was confidential as there were some internal sensitivities. In addition, there were some internal candidates who would need to be considered as part of the process. The purpose of our research was to uncover external candidates and to provide an analysis of whether they would be a better fit than the internal talent.
