Furthermore, we have access to the best-of-the-best executives and technologists. In fact, our expert recruitment research uncovers top talent others miss. That’s why we’re considered one of the top recruiting research companies in the industry.
Finally, an executive search research firm that gives you sourcing support the way that you want it.
Our investigative approach to executive recruitment makes recruiting smarter. Smart executive search makes in-house executive recruiting teams more successful. Understandably, it outperforms traditional candidate sourcing every time. Traditional recruiting research companies simply cannot do what we do.
Companies come to us to power up candidate identification and candidate qualification efforts. Moreover, they turn to us when they have a senior executive opening that is hard to fill. As a result, we manage confidential searches, boost diversity, conduct talent mapping, and build org charts of top target companies. In every way, we make search smarter and more effective.
Intellerati serves as a seamless extension of in-house executive recruiting and talent acquisition teams. In doing so, we consistently deliver dream candidates others miss. That’s the reason why we’re considered one of America’s Top Executive Search Research Firms.
“I have hired Intellerati for the tricky work, the kind of ‘black bag’ work I can’t do in-house and the kind of work that her competitors simply don’t have the expertise to do. Time and again Intellerati has amazed me with their ability to identify hidden gems of talent, ferret out pertinent competitive intelligence and provide me with a complete map of the marketplace.” — Managing Director, JPMorgan Chase

Organizational Intelligence
We reconstruct target organizations—reporting lines, span of control, and informal influence—so search starts from how work is actually done, not from title strings in a database. Each target company org chart is enhanced with AI, highlighting ideal candidates for every search engagement.
AI‑assisted Talent Mapping
AI accelerates pattern recognition across SEC filings, leadership profiles, and proprietary data; investigative methods validate those signals through human sources and contextual analysis. This produces a smaller, more relevant universe of candidates, not an unending stack of résumés.
Transparent, Conflict‑free Partnering
We avoid percentage fee structures that create misaligned incentives, and provide a client portal with real‑time visibility into target lists, outreach, and research progress. Our values-based alignment and transparency enables builds trust, facilitate collaboration, and lays the groundwork for success.
Candidate Sourcing
With more than 1 Billion candidates on LinkedIn, executive talent sourcing has become more complex and time-consuming, despite more advanced AI recruiting tools. Free up your in-house team to do more important things. Our approach is designed to make sure you are not missing perfect candidates at your favorite target companies.
Candidate Qualification
To speed time-to-hire, we convert candidate sourcing research into viable candidates. For example, we reach out to qualify executives. In doing so, we gather essential deal-making details and determine what kinds of opportunities would motivate them to make a move. As a result, we deliver interested candidates ready to move forward for interviews.
Diverse Talent Research
Diversity Sourcing drives success in recruiting underrepresented, diverse candidates at the executive level. Because women leaders and executives who are Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC) are under-represented in the workplace, there are comparatively fewer diverse executives to be found. One needs to look a little harder and dig a little deeper to level the playing field.
“The reach and depth for our Chief Data and Technology Officer search were extraordinary and the quality of the candidates was excellent but what really impressed me the most was how accessible they were and how thoroughly they understood our needs.”
Jean DuBose, Chief of Staff, Lieber Institute for Brain Development (LIBD)
