Specialized Headhunting

Since 2005 we are the experts for Specialized Recruiting.

Recruiting in Germany is different. The labour market is complex and very regulated. Only very few companies in Germany can find suitable candidates by incoming applications, job ads or social platforms like LinkedIn. So important positions remain vacant: revenue, customer satisfaction and market shares are threatened.

Why would anyone need a specialized recruiter in Germany?

Germany is different – why foreign search firms fail so often.
As seasoned recruiting specialists with international experience we are well aware that Germany is a very difficult market to recruit in. Most professionals have sound English language skills, but the access to candidates is completely different compared to the usual methods that work in other European countries or overseas. Germany is one of the most competitive and most regulated labour markets in Europe. Fees are about one third of estimated on-target-earnings of candidates – but reliable search firms do not accept contingency fees.

Candidate Approach

What exactly is different in Germany?

Since qualified candidates get a lot of unsolicited job offers by social media and the labour market in Germany is a candidate market, they quite often don not even respond on LinkedIn or similar platforms. As a consequence, those candidates need to be approached directly. We know how to do this because we are in the market for 20 years and because we are a trusted and well-known brand in our markets.

With Xenagos you find suitable candidates reasonably fast and for a fixed price. More than 1.000 companies trust Xenagos to find the Executives and Specialists. These companies are in all industries and range from the global player to the successful medium-sized company.

About 33% of our clients have their headquarter outside Germany. Many of them do their first-time-hiring in Germany.

Why us?
We truly focus on specialized functions and we consequently refuse to accept assignments in any other field. All our consultants combine in-depth recruiting know-how with can-do attitude, which is not to be found per default in Germany. This direct touch gives our team a tremendous advantage – we know recruiting and we are used to recruit non-german speaking and non-german based companies. Professionalism, know-how and experience combined with a focused business model give our clients the confidence to recruit the right candidates quickly and for a fair price
