Focus on Your Core Business while Gentry Partners Focuses on Your AI Hiring
Retaining an executive recruiter can be a strategic decision for companies that need to fill key leadership or specialized high-level individual contributor positions. These key hires can have significant downstream impact, and getting them wrong can be costly. As your recruiter I bring extensive industry knowledge and networks built from more than fifteen years in large tech firms and startups alike. I know the landscape of the major tech companies, and the best advisors and their descendants. I also track the cutting edge in AI by reading papers and attending academic research conferences. These are the candidates I offer you.
A Personalized Approach for Clients and Candidates
Every search is as unique as your company’s business need or your own career journey, and there is no one-size-fits-all search process or candidacy. As your recruiter, I listen carefully to understand you and thoughtfully describe what differentiates you, and I craft well-targeted and well-received personal outreach on your behalf.
How it Works
To launch your search, I quickly understand your business problem and what you are trying to solve and hire for, in order to run a proper executive search process. Whether you need to hire a senior leader, an individual contributor, or another AI specialist, relying on Boolean strings and generic messaging suitable for more general recruiting is unlikely to identify or persuade heavily contacted AI candidates to engage with you.
From a process perspective, I begin your search by developing a specific strategy which we agree on, then identify your most relevant prospective candidates using conference proceedings, publications records, academic genealogies and networking. Then I contact each person thoughtfully and uniquely. As we generate interest in your search, I prescreen all candidates, and when it comes to interview time, help you interview and assess. I will also help you negotiate and close. Most important of all, I help ensure that both companies and potential hires are set up for success.
