As a matter of principle, DELTACON only works with Executive Search Consultants who can call on a corresponding expertise in the respective industry.
Each DELTACON Executive Search Consultant is therefore responsible for his or her specific industry competence centre on a supra-regional basis and specialises in the requirements of the respective markets and products.

How does DELTACON support its clients and candidates after signing a contract?

By using our diagnostic tools we achieve the best possible and objective match between the candidate profile agreed with the client and the profiles of our candidates. We remain in close contact with both our clients and the candidates in a relationship of mutual trust even after the project has been completed.
What do I have to consider when doing an interview via video call?
Not only in times of Corona we observe a strong trend towards interviews via video call. The advantage is that a video interview can be conducted at any time and any place. Long time-consuming journeys to personal preliminary talks are avoided.
The following points should be noted:
o Use a suitable and common software. The most common providers are Zoom, Skype, Microsoft Teams and WhatsApp. Downloads are usually available free of charge from the respective manufacturers.
o Check your software profile. Have you chosen an appropriate name?
o Agenda and time frame should be coordinated. It is best to be ready to start 15 minutes before the scheduled start.
o Choose the appropriate dress code. As a rule, the outfit that is suitable for a personal meeting in the company is also suitable for a video call.
o Choose a suitable location for the interview. Avoid disturbing sources and background noise. Switch your mobile phone off silently or completely. Check the technology and network access in advance.
During the interview: Pay attention to your body language! Smile, eye contact and non-verbal communication are visible in the video call!
How can a candidate in the over 50 age group increase his or her chances of applying?
When applying as a candidate of the age group over 50, you should emphasise your strengths. There may be many of these, for example:
Experience
You have a wealth of experience that younger people usually do not have. This background creates a self-confidence that helps you to find a new challenge. You know what you can do and what you want.
Reputation and network
In the course of your professional life you have already been able to collect a number of references. You have an extensive and resilient network that could possibly be an advantage for a new employer.
Clarity
You can specify your ideas, strengths, interests and values. If your ideas coincide with those of the company, you will find together.
