Recruitment-2
A - Association of Executive Search Consultants (AESC's)
The AESC’s membership of over 270 firms is split into three regional councils
The Americas (North and South America), EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa) and Asia-Pacific. Between them, these firms carry out over 50,000 executive search assignments per annum.
The Association has a number of regional and global committees to address issues within the industry, such as Government Relations, Ethics and Professional Practices. These bodies are elected annually. The AESC also organizes a number of local and regional events.
In addition to promoting and maintaining professional and ethical standards, the AESC provides training through its Campus program, attempts to broaden public understanding of the industry and serves as an advocate for the interests of its member firms. In 2000, the Association also developed BlueSteps.com, a subscription-based Internet service to create a link between job-seeking executives and AESC's member search firms.
