Our approach

An extensive onboarding process was the key to success. We conducted a general Audit to gather information about the company, role, and ideal candidate profile. As the Incision management team is relatively small, there were meetings with every individual as well to make sure all preferences and needs were covered and everyone had an equal say in the profile we would be looking for.


We set up a team with our most experienced c-level recruiters who were able to activate interesting candidates within a week, when the interview process started. In the end, it turned out that the ideal - and hired - candidate was the second candidate Incision spoke to in the first round interviews.
