Our Values

Talent matters to Scouters

At Scouters, our company culture is directly responsible for our successful performance. At the foundation of Scouters culture are seven principles that serve as our core values. These core values transcend all else and reflect the ethos of our company. That ethos was forged from the principals of honorable service, but it remains a constant as we have expanded far beyond transition. As with any virtues, they are simple in concept but demand daily diligence in their adherence.

At Scouters, we are a close-knit community of premier executive recruiters who strongly believe:

Our clients and candidates are our primary concern.

Job One; Our True North; The Raison d’être. However you phrase it, our clients and candidates are why we exist. Everything we do is to help our clients find transcendent talent and our candidates realize their career aspirations. We are only successful when they are.

We strive to exceed – not just meet – expectations.

Merely satisfied is not sufficient. Our goal with every interaction is to have people receive what they may not have expected. Doing this requires putting our clients’ and candidates’ interests ahead of our own and truly understanding their ultimate objectives.

Discretion and integrity are required at all times.

Ethics, integrity, and trust are a given at Scouters. Without these traits, we cannot succeed. Confidentiality is a foundation for recruiting and hiring, and we respect that in everything we do.

We are professional in every situation.

We are a professional organization engaged in recruiting and placing executive talent. We exude professionalism in every aspect of our organization, from how we answer the phone to our follow-up communications long after the placement.

Performance is critical.

To whom much is given; much will be expected. Performance is our measuring stick, and it reflects the merits of each individual’s contribution to our own organization. But per our first core value, how we treat our clients and candidates, and what we achieve for them, is the true measure of our performance.

We value diversity.

The real value of diversity is the positive impact it has on shaping a dynamic and highly collaborative environment. With so many skilled recruiters from so many varied backgrounds, we are able to provide our clients and candidates with a rich and intelligent consultative approach.

We continue to learn and develop.

We hire and mold the very best in the industry. Our careful cultivation and rigorous training gives our associates a unique, competitive edge in the recruiting marketplace. No one is too old to learn. Everyone is expected to do so.
