Employers

Emprof is a recruitment company specialized in the recruitment of highly qualified sales and marketing candidates in the Netherlands. The partners of Emprof have many years of experience recruiting sales and marketing professionals. Besides for Dutch companies, we have experience and a track record in successfully finding Dutch based candidates for various American/English and other international companies in the Netherlands.

Knowledge of target groups: orientation behaviour and pull factors

Emprof knows how your candidates orientate themselves and thus where to find them. Moreover, Emprof knows what motivates candidates when it comes to their careers (pull factors), so that communication can be effectively and perfectly geared to finding and selecting them. This way, the right candidates are not only found quickly, but they are also convinced to choose for your organisation.

Experienced people

The partners have recruited hundreds of professionals for many different organisations and know extensively how to set up and execute successful campaigns

How does Emprof work?

Emprof continuously searches and selects candidates in your target group. Appropriate sources are utilised based on orientation behaviour of target groups:

  • Search engines advertising using key words (Google)
  • Search engine optimisation (SEO)
  • Career sites
  • Target group sites
  • Network sites (such as Hyves / LinkedIn / Facebook)
  • Print Media
  • Newsgroups/ chat rooms
  • Direct (e)mail actions
  • Viral marketing
  • Referral programmes

Emprof website and Talent Pool

All sources lead candidates directly to the Emprof website. The website is key when it comes to communication with candidates. The website is where candidates find all interesting information (based on our knowledge of pull factors) and where they can immediately respond to job vacancies and register through “open” applications. Emprof continuously searches and selects candidates in target groups.
Emprof has a database of more than 10.000 sales and marketing candidates. An active relationship is maintained with these candidates, so that Emprof always has an extensive Talent Pool of qualified candidates within your target group at its immediate disposal. Besides continuous selection of candidates, Emprof can develop specific campaigns for your assignment.

Search & Selection based on knowledge of target groups

The selection process starts with a thorough intake interview. In this interview the specific type of person you are looking for (profile, qualifications) as well as your organisation and the position(s) at hand are discussed. With this information, Emprof can search its Talent Pool for the right candidate and develop specific selection campaigns. Together we will determine your organisation’s positive pull factor scores (also related to your competitors) and use this information to convince the right candidates to choose your organisation. Emprof selects the best candidates through extensive interviews and, if desired, testing. If desired, Emprof also checks the references of candidates who are suitable in principle. Interested and qualified candidates are then introduced to you.
