FORD MOTORS INC
Company: Ford Motors Inc
Contact: John Sampras
Location: Detroit (USA)
THE DECISION
Like most companies Ford have been outsourcing peripheral activities for some time. Recruitment is a difficult one however because most companies these days just want to advertise your positions.
THE RECOMMENDATION
City Executive Associates provides a full recruitment service from advertising, to interviewing, through to evaluation and selection. A terrific service provider.
John Sampras
On behalf of Ford Motors Inc
Company: Google
Contact: Amy Lewis
Location: Los Angeles (USA)
THE DECISION
Most operational and middle management positions are advertised through traditional online media, but you want to hand pick your senior managers and directors.
THE RECOMMENDATION
City Executive Associates provide a unique service for top tier recruitment and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

HEWLETT PACKARD
Company: Hewlett Packard
Contact: Richard Mize
Location: San Francisco (USA)
THE DECISION
With senior appointments it is mission-critical that you get the right person for the right job. Online job boards don't really cut it at this level.
THE RECOMMENDATION
City Executive Associates provide a tailor-made service and ensure that you get what you ask for.

HSBC
Company: HSBC
Contact: Linford Price
Location: Hong Kong (China)
THE DECISION
HSBC is a global bank and as such we tend to want to consider a wide variety of candidates for senior positions without taking too much time during the process.
THE RECOMMENDATION
CEA provide a professional evaluation and selection process which enables you to widen your horizons without widening your budget.
Linford Price
On behalf of HSBC
HILTON HOTELS
Company: Hilton Hotels
Contact: Paula Williams
Location: London (UK)
THE DECISION
If you have multiple vacancies then it naturally follows that you will need a high-volume recruitment strategy. However the reverse is true of senior appointments.
THE RECOMMENDATION
City Executive Associates provide a low-volume strategy for those positions where quality is ultimately more important than quantity.
Paula Williams
On behalf of Hilton Hotels
ICI
Company: ICI
Contact: Peter Durrant
Location: Manchester (UK)
THE DECISION
We were introduced to City Executive Associates via the virtual consultancy network originally, which is a terrific resource in itself.
THE RECOMMENDATION
It is no surprise that the best positions are not advertised. It is not necessarily what you know but who you know. We know City Executive Associates.
Peter Durrant
On behalf of ICI
KPMG
Company: KPMG
Contact: Paul Davids
Location: London (UK)
THE DECISION
The recruitment industry has to start becoming more targeted again. There are too many all consuming internet portals with little substance to them.
THE RECOMMENDATION
CEA is a recruitment company from the old school and has created the perfect niche at the top end of the market. A super company.
Paul Davids
On behalf of KPMG
MICROSOFT
Company: Microsoft
Contact: Linda McMahon
Location: Los Angeles (USA)
THE DECISION
Pre-screened applicants, low volume, high quality.
THE RECOMMENDATION
One of the best places to find top quality applicants for senior appointments.
Linda McMahon
On behalf of Microsoft
SIEMENS
Company: Siemens
Contact: Oliver Schmit
Location: Berlin (Germany)
THE DECISION
CEA provided us with virtual consultants for some time. This in itself is a good source of recruitment for senior positions because you get to try before you buy!
THE RECOMMENDATION
Always consistent, always professional. No hesitation in recommending them.
Oliver Schmit
On behalf of Siemens
VODAFONE
Company: Vodafone
Contact: Jane Overton
Location: London (UK)
THE DECISION
I think the main reason was because you have to have an extremely good screening process if you want to identify the best candidates for senior appointments.
THE RECOMMENDATION
CEA offer such a service and on a scale which is realistic and manageable. It is more companies like this that we need.
Jane Overton
On behalf of Vodafone
