Quick Answers Before You Reach Out
How do I start a search with Excelon Associates?
Submit the short form on this page, or call us at +1 (828) 417-7094. A recruiter responds within one business day to learn about the role and scope the search.
How fast will I hear back?
Within one business day. As soon as you submit your role, a member of our team reaches out to confirm the details and outline next steps.
How long does a search take?
Most retained searches present a vetted finalist shortlist in three to five weeks, depending on the role, seniority, and market.
Which sectors does Excelon Associates recruit for?
Higher education, healthcare, financial services, and government, plus temporary and contract staffing across all four of those sectors.
Is there any cost or obligation to reach out?
No. Submitting your role and having the first conversation are free with no obligation. Retained search is a paid engagement, and we walk you through the fee structure when we scope the role, before you commit to anything.
What information do you need to start a search?
To begin we only need your name, contact details, and the role you are hiring for. We build the full role profile, requirements, compensation range, and timeline together on the first call.
What is the difference between retained search and contingency recruiting?
In a retained search the firm works exclusively on your role and manages the entire process, including direct outreach to passive candidates. Contingency recruiters compete to submit resumes and are paid only if their candidate is hired, which tends to favor speed over depth.
Can you run a confidential or replacement search?
Yes. We regularly handle confidential searches, including quietly replacing someone currently in a role, and manage every step discreetly to protect both the client and the candidates.
