At Jurupa, we have a defined candidate charter which stands as an SLA of sorts, and outlines our commitment to uploading minimum standards around communication, feedback and advice. Typically, the process begins with a 15 minute screening call conducted by a researcher to convey high level details of the role and opportunity, whilst basic details are gathered around current situation, current and target compensation, notice period etc. This is followed by a 45 minute deep-dive call in which functional and behavioural competency questions are presented.
Qualified candidates are then added to the longlist, kept updated on a regular basis and guided through the process toward a conclusion. Jurupa will always act as the candidate’s counsel throughout the process, taking care of any required negotiation between the parties along the way.
Although steps are being taken to address the situation, there has been a legacy of underrepresentation of candidates from diverse backgrounds across the industries we serve. Our approach is to meet on a quarterly basis as an organisation to discuss the subject of DEI openly and honestly, remove all possible bias from the screening process, and carefully consider the wording used in our job descriptions and candidate briefing packs. Finally, we encourage our clients to assemble wherever possible, diverse interview panels.
By utilising our highly effective 7 step methodology, we have successfully delivered outstanding results for clients who came to us with seemingly unsolvable hiring challenges, only for our framework to deliver powerhouse hires.

We apply a full, executive search process which incorporates a detailed briefing call with the relevant stakeholders, enables us to map the addressable market, compile a bespoke candidate briefing pack along with tailored outreach, before engaging with target candidates and conducting in-depth screening interviews. This tends to include behavioural profiling, psychometric testing and formal referencing.
You will be invited to join an initial 15 minute screening call with one of our executive researchers to convey a high level overview of the company and the scope of opportunity, whilst they gather basic details around your current situation.
Assuming both sides are in agreement about moving forward, you will be invited to join a 45 minute deep-dive call which goes into finer details about the wider opportunity and in which you will be asked a series of competency based questions – the answers from which will be summarised and shared with the interview panel prior to shortlisting.
Everything shared during your conversations is kept entirely within the bounds of the interview process and remains confidential between all parties. In the case of a search mandate which is highly sensitive or confidential, you might be asked to sign an NDA (non disclosure agreement) to ensure an additional layer of protection.
