One Year Guarantee

From our decades of experience at Perry Martel we have come to believe that the “full retainer – no contingency” fee systems of many executive search firms does not provide the proper incentive to the search firm to effectively execute the task and stand behind the result.

We also believe that the “no retainer – full contingency” fee system of employment agencies seldom results in a quality search, because assignment turnover and not client service, becomes the firm’s principle concern.

The Inside-Out Approach has a Near Perfect Success Rate

Perry-Martel’s system captures the best features of traditional systems along with encouraging your involvement in the process, resulting in a more successful project. It’s this openness and transparency of our methodology that enables us to offer our clients a One-Year Guarantee.

Our aim when developing the Inside-Out Approach was to able to always produce the highest quality search so clients would never need to use the One-Year Guarantee.

Since founding Perry-Martel International Inc. in 1988, we’ve only replaced five candidates. The level of rigor built in to the Referencing and Evaluation Process has resulted in a 99.54% success rate in an industry where a sub 30% stick rate is the norm. That is why David was approached to write several books on executive recruiting and executive search.

One Year Guarantee

Our one year guarantee well documented in two best-selling books,, “Hiring Greatness: How to Recruit Your Dream Team and Crush the Competition”, and Executive Recruiting for Dummies detail a large part of the Inside-Out Approach which demonstrates how we can offer a One Year Guarantee.

The books are widely available in business book stores across North America and Europe. Hiring Greatness is also now available in Simplified Chinese.

P.S. Other recruiting systems either don’t work for you, or actively work against you. PMI’s Inside-Out Approach works with you, and continues to work with you after your executive search is completed.
