Our services
We provide services in a range of disciplines:
Search & Selection
We know that our customers have different requirements and objectives. Smarte Hoder uses DNV GL-certified occupational psychology test programs to measure personality, ability, skills and motivation. That’s how we can ensure that you get the most suitable employees you need, and when you need them.
Selection
Selection is an open, advertised process, presenting the most-qualified applicants for selection. We compile the vacancy advertisement based on the criteria identified during the job analysis.
Executive Search
Executive Search is a “closed” process, in which we conduct an active candidate search based on predefined criteria in the job analysis. Our task is to identify candidates that match the vacancy requirement profile, provoke curiosity and generate interest in the job.
In some instances, a combination of Selection and Executive Search can be the most effective means of making contact with different candidates.
Open an account with Smarte Hoder!
We offer very favourable terms to growth, start- and scale-up companies, and those that don’t have the capacity to run the entire recruitment process themselves.
We take care of the entire process: from job analysis, design and publication of job advertisements, to selection and negotiating a contract. That‘s how we create a reassuring customer and candidate experience, ensuring quality at every level throughout the process.

second opinion
Smarte Hoder offers final assessment as a service, which is an impartial assessment of candidates from the customer’s own processes. We assist with the evaluation of final candidates in the last phase of the recruitment process, to ensure objective, professional evaluation.
