Our Process
Our Process
We help companies to acquire senior, black professionals.
For us that generally means black, African, South Africans.
Eden Africa has, for 33 years, been working with clients in an alternative process to the typical recruitment paradigm in order to achieve significant gains. We take a provocative and forthright role in the process and look for a committed relationship with clients. Our ideal client is a South African company or an individual in that company who says: “We need senior black professionals, and we are willing to be creative.”
Besides being able to access great black talent, our other value add is in helping clients to conduct an acquisition process that supports their black talent attraction ambitions. In short: trying to create a candidate-centric experience for black professionals who aren’t “on the market” in the traditional sense. Rather, we’ve engaged them, and they are willing to explore an exciting opportunity if one were to present itself. The process needs a nuanced, individualised, and thoughtful approach and we help you to deliver that.
Many organisations who only follow traditional recruitment practices find that they have an underrepresentation of black professionals at the top levels of the business. Or they struggle to find and engage top black talent. We don’t do recruitment in a traditional sense. Eden Africa has a creative approach. We’re good at this and have a track record of significant placements of hard-skilled black professionals in South African companies.
