Common questions
What executive roles does TalixoHR search for?
We conduct executive search for CTO, VP Engineering, VP Product, CPO, VP Sales, CRO, CISO, COO and General Management roles at startups and scaleups in India.
How is executive search different from standard hiring?
Executive search is targeted, not advertised. We identify specific candidates at relevant companies, approach them confidentially, and qualify them rigorously before presenting to you. The search is private by design.
How long does an executive search take?
Leadership searches typically take 4–8 weeks from mandate intake to shortlist, depending on role complexity, market availability and geographic scope. We set timelines based on realistic market assessment.
Do you work on retainer for executive search?
Yes. Executive search mandates typically involve a retainer structure reflecting the dedicated, confidential nature of the work. We can discuss commercial terms during the initial discovery call.
