Basically, Executive Search is the process when companies are looking for hiring management and professional talent from outside their organization.
Furthermore, the Association of Executive Search Consultants (
AESC), is the
Worldwide Professional Association for Retained Executive Search Consulting Firms. Its mission is to promote the highest professional standards in retained executive search consulting, broaden public understanding of the executive search process, and serve as an advocate for the interests of its member firms. The
AESC is recognized by the United States Government and the European Commission as the representative body for the retained executive search industry.
