BEHIND EVERY INTRODUCTION
The work you do not
see in a profile
Your life cannot be captured in a few fields on an application. A useful working relationship with a matchmaker makes room for the details: the difference between a flexible preference and a firm boundary, or between an exciting possibility and something that will not work in everyday life.
That is why a conversation matters. Our role is to bring attention and professional judgment to the search, while keeping your own choices at its center.
FROM UNDERSTANDING TO INTRODUCTION
Four parts of a considered search
01
Listen for what matters
Talk about the relationship you want and the life you want it to fit. Context helps clarify the qualities, commitments and practical details a search needs to consider.
02
Look beyond the obvious
Candidate consideration brings interests and intentions together with practical fit. Depending on the agreed service, sourcing may include the network, referrals, recruiting and approved outreach.
03
Make the next step clear
Before an introduction, discuss the relevant context, what information may be shared and how coordination would work. Both people have a choice about proceeding.
04
Learn from the meeting
Useful feedback is specific and respectful. What felt natural? What was missing? What did you learn about your own preferences? Those details can inform the next conversation.
A WORKING RELATIONSHIP
Know who is
in your corner
Different functions can sit with the same person in a small team. Ask who would support your search and how responsibilities are handled.
Matchmaking & candidate consideration
Understanding the brief and considering potential introductions within the agreed search.
Communication & coordination
Helping clarify next steps, scheduling arrangements and questions about the service.
Feedback & continuity
Keeping the conversation connected to what you learn from the experience.
TAKE THESE INTO YOUR CONSULTATION
Good questions build a better partnership
Who would be my point of contact?
Ask who would lead your search, how to reach them and who handles questions when they are unavailable. Confirm the arrangements before you begin.
What experience is relevant to my search?
Discuss the geography, relationship goals and practical circumstances of your search. Ask how the proposed approach would address those specifics.
How will I hear about progress?
Ask about the expected communication rhythm and what an update includes. Confirm how you should share feedback or changes in your circumstances.
What is included in my service?
Clarify the search scope, fees, term, coordination and any coaching or additional services. The agreed terms should guide your expectations.
