Polachi brings reach, access and selection expertise to executive recruiting for technology, clean tech, private equity and venture capital clients. At the end of the day, shareholder value is directly tied to securing the best talent on the planet. Traditional executive search firms limit candidate access due to “off-limit” protocol, while newer search firms don’t have the breadth and depth of connections to the absolute best talent. Polachi’s Access Executive Search^TM eliminates candidate contention so all outstanding candidates are presented versus a self-serving, search firm-driven subset of candidates.
