I had the pleasure of being “grilled” by Charlotte when head hunted for a very senior position in my current organisation. Her approach was crucial because this was an unusual position requiring a mix of skills that would not be run of the mill..
The approach she took was engaging while detailed and painstaking she left no stone unturned, and she does so with personality, analysis and detail, a winning combination. When promoted to the position of Chief Executive I needed to appoint to my old position and it was natural to go back to Charlotte. She got it right again and we have a great appointee doing great work but the fact is that we could have appointed the majority of the interviewees she put before us.
A amusing aside, one of the interviewees who did not get the job said that being courteously rejected by Charlotte was in some ways a more rewarding experience than getting offered a post by others! She can be relied upon to do the whole job, not just the nice parts. I thoroughly and wholeheartedly recommend Charlotte.
