Phase 2: Development of the Candidate Pool and Recommendations

Deliverable 4. Development of the Candidate Pool

K&A Recruiting’s focus on modern sourcing techniques, which expand the candidate pool, differentiates
us from public-sector competition, who often rely on less efficient and more passive practices of
candidate discovery.

The technology we use helps us to organize and develop a diverse candidate pool for ease of
presentation and more powerful recommendations. Various factors impacting the candidate market
include the economics of the labor market, time-of-year, and geographic location. By also tracking
underlying data, we can adjust to market forces to reinforce the set of candidates.

We will use our extensive internal network in combination with modern recruiting tools.

Also incorporated in our modern recruiting philosophy is Diversity & Inclusion. K&A Recruiting has built
a reputation for being an expert in identifying, targeting, recruiting, and successfully placing women and
minority candidates in many of our recruitments. Our firm has developed a library of resources for
advertising towards women and minority candidates. K&A Recruiting’s philosophy has included
diversity as an emphasis for some time, and we feel well-poised to stay at the forefront.

Deliverable 5. K&A Conducted Phone Screens
A designated member of our team will evaluate and schedule the top-ranked candidates for
phone screens, organized in our applicant tracking system. He or she will prepare K&A Recruiting’s
proprietary Phone Screen Evaluation Form to summarize the conversation and assign the respective
candidate a numerical ranking — making our recommendations concise and easy to understand.

Deliverable 6. Presentation of Recommended Candidates (Applicant Materials Binder)

When the screening process is complete, we will prepare K&A Recruiting’s Applicant Materials
Binder, which contains a visually friendly summary of the candidate pool and pipeline.

K&A Recruiting will submit for review by the key stakeholders, the digital, interactive Application
Materials Binder that includes clear written analysis of the applicant pool and recommendations of
between 6 and 12 candidates to consider for on-site interviews. The Binder will include all
documents submitted by applicants, such as application forms, cover letters, résumés, and any
additional information the applicants have submitted.

We base our assessments on both the candidate’s qualifications and the knowledge of the City’s
requirements, preferences, and culture.
