As a candidate, why should I be transparent with Hammer Haley search consultants regarding historical positions held, reasons for leaving and compensation?
Hammer Haley is under contract with clients to provide accurate and thorough vetting of candidates that are presented. Beyond being professional in our approach, it is a business necessity that we disclose your situation accurately so that the employer has the necessary information on which to base their decision. Late-stage surprises are never welcome and have killed more than a few agreements for all involved. Relative to compensation, if coming out of tier-one management consulting or investment banking, odds are, we already have a decent perspective on your annual income. In addition to acquiring specific information, your response to this question affords an early indication of your integrity and what it might be like to work with you on a ‘live’ opportunity. Our strong recommendation is to always shoot straight. Understand that we are working in everyone’s best interest and your willingness to provide accurate information does position you best for a winning candidacy.
