WHY RAW SELECTION
Raw Selection has a long standing and well established relationship with ArchiMed. We support the growth of both their investment and operating teams globally and hold a successful track record.
THE PROCESS
Raw Selection commences every search by discussing and understanding the full search requirement and brief. Raw Selection’s Vice President, Haleema Hussain, led the search and sourced and selected the top candidates who matched the search requirements and were a great culture fit.
With the cooperation of Andre-Michel Ballester, hiring manager at ArchiMed, Haleema and Oliver built out a full picture of the company, the employees, the culture, and exactly the type of profile that was needed to succeed in this position.
Raw Selection followed our extensive 15-step search process, identifying 75 potential profiles which were fully evaluated and then cut down to a shortlist of 6, all of whom had been fully interviewed and measured for culture fit.
Raw Selection identified an exceptional individual, Roy Cheng, who was subsequently hired for the role.
Since this search, we have been able to assist Archimed in multiple searches for their team in New York and Lyon.
THOUGHTS ON THE SEARCH
"The search was a great success; however, it was not completed without a challenge. Although there was a big talent pool, it was difficult to find someone who had LBO modelling skills and the competency to complete a business presentation to a high standard. We were able to present an extremely strong shortlist to Archimed and look forward to working with them on future searches."
Haleema Hussain, Vice President, Raw Selection
THOUGHTS ON THE CANDIDATE
