Human beings have become obsolete as mere production units. They have rather turned into guiding spirits of modern work processes with sustained added value and appreciations.

Human beings have become obsolete as mere production units.

The corporate and economic significance of HR departments is often heavily disputed. Many HR managers are not part of either the extended or the actual general management. However, a strategically smart, competent orientation of personnel recruitment and a future-oriented human resources management are critical key factors for assuring a company’s existence.

The complexity of interpersonal interactions increases steadily. It is not enough anymore to simply find the right professionals that meet the hard factors. In addition, soft factors like the ability to work in a team, to adapt, willingness to develop and social compatibility take up more and more room in decision-making processes. If Human Resources Management (HRM) isn’t all that important, personnel search, screening and selection can simply be left to mere chance. The savings in time and money will surely be dedicated to all future problems. The costs increase vastly. PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG assists many HR managers, and also general managers, in their search for the right HR experts.

The more time passes, the more dominantly Human Resources Management (HRM) is confronted with a paradigm. The so-called Human Capital Management raises its claim. Corporate managements and stakeholders want to learn more about how the intangible assets of well qualified employees are balanced in the total valuation. The deeper cause for this new appreciation of employees does not lie in altruistic reasons. The working world is undergoing fundamental changes.

There are no more lifelong guarantees for employers and employees. The markets have become too fragile, too volatile and too agile. Long gone are the days of adhering to iron market-ideological traditions and dogmata. Job markets open up, they change radically within a short period of time and highly skilled High Potentials move as present-day nomads from continent to continent.

The global competition for attractive job markets increases continuously.

The global competition for attractive job markets increases continuously. Young, but dynamic economies, too, have clearly realized that excellent social and economic basic conditions attract skilled professionals. The value of the highly skilled expertise in combination with intellectual and social competence of knowledge bearers is ever increasing. Special knowledge and special skills become attractive assets that can be match-deciding for the economic development of businesses. Complex knowledge, which is constantly adjusted to new findings, is a valuable resource that is much sought-after and always exposed to many temptations. To a larger extent, Personnel search, recruitment, screening and selection have to be accompanied by personnel fostering, promotion and sustainment. The business expenses, the high subsequent costs and the considerable process-controlled structural and fundamental damages of an extraordinarily high employee turnover are still massively underestimated. Negative staff changes cause a noticeable delay and a painful stop of all corporate development and healthy growth, which might have a big impact and cast a shadow on the overall performance of the general management. A lack of personnel or employing the wrong or poorly skilled personnel can be just as exasperatingly inhibiting as having unsatisfied, exploited or demotivated personnel. Modern Human Resources Management works like a precisely calibrated seismograph: It accurately locates undesired developments, it takes immediate measures and it uses modern methods to take corrective actions.

Good Human Resources Management and a competent, committed crew will prevent an expensive and damaging loss of reputation due to a high employee turnover, and will ensure the systematic and consistent implementation of personnel sustainment and fostering.

Human Resources Management is subject to many vain trends that simulate superficial, contemporary open-mindedness and modernity. Many of those theoretical management novelties cannot be implemented in daily practice. The main focus should not be on the concept, but on the uncompromising appreciation of the staff. More and more open-minded management teams and individual decision makers conclude that modern Human Resources Management not only accentuates the lasting added value of business processes, but also creates appreciation-generating values like motivation, loyalty, sense of belonging and work satisfaction. People that only want to earn their bread, will never develop the same hard and soft values that generate profit for a business as those people who are met with an authentic, sincere and open appreciation.

The commercial world of work has changed. Due to the unstoppable technological advancement and the strong internationalization of the commercial environment, many job descriptions have changed significantly, have been newly created or disappeared altogether. However, the attractiveness of the variety of commercial jobs remains unchanged. Without commercial experts and executives, the economy would stagnate.

Many businesses would be struggling without any commercial expertise.

The drastic, fundamental changes in the commercial world cannot be overlooked and are unstoppable. There is not one day that goes by without showing a new technological possibility to perform commercial tasks even faster, more efficiently and effectively. Productivity, effectiveness and efficiency have changed dramatically in some job descriptions. The constant increase of the dynamics of work processes has not only ‘streamlined’ organizations, but also evidently increased the pressure to be more productive and efficient. The escalating substantial flattening of organizations and hierarchies contribute to the fact that jobs with classically supporting functions like secretaries or assistants are undergoing significant changes. Managers often plan their travels themselves and make arrangements via the internet. They prepare documents themselves and do not require any further assistance. Finance and accounting systems have become very specialized as well. Due to more and more internationalized, legal regulations, more and more influential fiscal and accounting rules and other concomitants, this specialized area has become remarkably demanding and comprehensive. Human Resources Management has also been adjusted to the new requirements. It has changed drastically over the last few years and is now considered to be an independent specialty area in many companies. The days when it might have been incorporated in the IT department or bookkeeping are long gone and have made room for modern-day management needs.

The commercial world is changing constantly. Nothing remains the same. Reforms and changes also influence the commercial education system. They have clearly added to and strengthened the competencies of graduates of commercial schools.

Have commercial jobs become obsolete in the general professional world? By no means

Have commercial jobs become obsolete in the general professional world? By no means! Experts in the commercial field are absolutely essential for most companies. Over the last few years, however, the professional expectations in this occupation group have increased above average. Commercial experts still manage to meet those expectations as well as the demands of employers. The reforms of basic vocational training and the perfectly structured in-service training system, have clearly realized the demand for ‘best practice’, focusing on core competencies and continuing education. New findings, requirements and also technologies are therefore quickly incorporated into the continuing education system and immediately implemented in daily professional life by the graduates. Commercial services will continue to strongly dictate daily economic routines in the future. This occupation group possesses a stupendous ability to adjust to new demands. The personnel consultants at PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG attend to the commercial sector very intensely. No matter if personnel search, screening or selection – we know what we are talking about. Since 1992.

Experts in the commercial field are a dominant and integral part of every economy. Since 1992, PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has been specialized in searching, screening and selecting experts and High Potentials for all commercial jobs.

During the last few years, data processing, computer sciences, IT and business technology have undergone a turbulent development beyond comparison.

The complexity of the demands of the specialists is ever increasing. Things that once were ‘state of the art’, may be completely obsolete today. Applications and the required software, too, change very rapidly. The innovation cadence and the international competition are overwhelming. Long gone are the days of chaotic garage companies and thrown-together spaghetti programs. Since 1992, PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has successfully recruited those experts.

Ada Lovelace, an exceptionally intelligent, British mathematician

When did the computer age begin anyway? In 1614, John Napier published his famous table of logarithms and only a few years later, in 1623, Wilhelm Schickard developed the first ‘computer’, which was still fully mechanical. Johannes Kepler, the famous physicist and polymath, used the machine for his astronomic calculations. The binary system, i.e. the possibility to display every alphanumeric symbol with 1 and 0, was invented by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz. The age of enlightenment and the increasing influence of science, enabled Joseph-Marie Jacquard to invent punch cards in 1805. Those punch cards were able to control looms and boosted the economic development of the already flourishing textile industry even more. Later, Charles Babbage developed the important theoretic groundwork that became essential for the construction of the first, modern-day, mechanical computers. Ada Lovelace, an exceptionally intelligent, British mathematician, made history when she invented a method to program computers and thus wrote the first software. But it was still a long journey until the first super computer and all-purpose computer, ENIAC, in 1945. In 1938, Konrad Zuse, a brilliant German scientist, completed Z1. It was a programmable, but still mechanical computer. At that time, it was a quantum leap. The machine did not work very well, but was indispensable for the basic research of the following years. The 1950s marked the beginning of the production of commercial computers and the conquest of science and economy.

Meanwhile, the economic contribution of the IT sciences and services has become an indispensable factor. In all situations of life, we are accompanied by software and hardware. Mixers, cars, cell phones and thousands of products more cannot function without IT anymore. In addition, many other interdisciplinary domains have evolved from computer sciences: Informations Systems, Computational Linguistics, Bioinformatics, Chemoinformatics, Geoinformatics or Media Informatics. The so-called artificial intelligence (AI), too, is a large branch of computer sciences with strong influences from logic, linguistics, neurophysiology, cognitive psychology, sensor technologies and robotics. The extreme compression of highly specialized niche knowledge and half knowledge increases on a daily basis due to the almost unmanageable and further growing flood of information.

Only well trained experts, who constantly educate themselves and who can keep up with the technological developments, will have a chance on the IT employment market.

Only well trained experts, who constantly educate themselves and who can keep up with the technological developments, will have a chance on the IT employment market.

PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has successfully recruited IT specialists for many years. However, the recruitment, screening and selection of such experts go far beyond the binary world. We upgrade our knowledge in order to understand the new requirements the IT specialists have to meet. We possess the right resources and the right knowledge to find the right person as unerringly and efficiently as possible. Due to many years of experience and an outstanding reputation, PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has enjoyed the undivided confidence of local IT service providers since its inception in 1992.

During the last few years, data processing, computer sciences, IT and business technology have undergone a turbulent development beyond comparison. The complexity of the demands of the specialists is ever increasing. The competition surrounding the best and most creative minds has left the simple pecuniary level. Companies can keep the best employees only by offering excellent working conditions, strong promotion of talents, and through committed fostering and adherence to best practices that generate appreciation.

The Basiliensis region is Switzerland’s most important logistics region. The trinational Euro district, together with the region of TriRhena and the cities of Basel, Mulhouse (France) and Freiburg in Breisgau (Germany), has led to the development of a core logistics region.

The city of Basel is Switzerland’s Number 1 when it comes to logistics, freight forwarding and supply chain management.

Basel is the undisputed logistics and freight forwarding capital of these trans-regional service providers. PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has been actively supporting this key industry from the very beginning. Our personnel consultants all have basic training and professional experience in the freight forwarding industry. The trinational Euro district offers Europe’s highest concentration of well-qualified freight forwarding and logistics experts.

The trinational Euro district of Basel and the TriRhenia region encompass the area comprising the city of Basel and the North West Switzerland region, Mulhouse (F), Colmar (F) and Freiburg (D), where around 2.5 million people live. This trans-regional hub is unique in Europe and provides important logistical parameters for some of the largest freight forwarding and logistics enterprises in the world. The central location and the confluence of rail, road and shipping routes have provided especially beneficial conditions for the freight forwarding and logistics industry. The nearby airport, the north-south axis which is heavily utilised by the international railways, the Rhine, via which a large proportion of strategically important raw materials are transported and the exceptional road network facilitate this development.

 Further features of the Basel region are the undisputed high quality of its infrastructure and the availability of numerous freight forwarding specialists with the corresponding skills and training in the field of logistics. As a border location Basel also plays an important role for customs formalities. Well-trained customs declarants and competent customs authorities continue to be an important prerequisite for the smooth flow of commercial traffic over the border. A number of renowned freight forwarding and logistics companies who are also members of leading international groups have their headquarters in the Basel region. Furthermore, many medium-sized and smaller companies providing not only freight forwarding and logistics but also additional services such as warehousing, transport consultancy, etc are also based in North West Switzerland. Many companies operate their own terminals which benefit from the road, rail and waterway connections and which are often operated from the same location as the administration. Given the concentration of logistics companies in this region, it is certainly no coincidence that Basel is also the headquarters of Spedlogswiss, the association of Swiss freight forwarding and logistics companies. The rail cargo traffic with the new Euro hub in Basel-Muttenz is also a European hub of key importance for transportation along the North/South axis. It is here – directly in the Rhine harbour – that the transfer from rail to ship takes place, as well as that from road to ship.

The many internationally renowned trade shows such as Art Basel and the Watch and Jewellery Trade Show, for example, require more and more highly specialised trade show logistics experts who are able to provide services for an extremely demanding client base.

They are the essential instrument for managing and controlling a business. Even the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras believed that the universe was based on the power of numbers.

Even the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras believed that the universe was based on the power of numbers.

Finance and accounting, controlling, bookkeeping and billing are essential instruments for managing and controlling a business. The determination of new strategies, the conquest of new markets or the acquisition of new business opportunities – they all require conclusive facts that support existentially important decisions. Only very well qualified professionals in the respective areas of expertise are able to meet those requirements. We have been finding the right specialized personnel on all levels for you since 1992.

The world’s first accounting systems were developed in 9000 B.C. in Mesopotamia. It was a long way until the development of double-entry accounting in the 13th century in Northern Italy and the sophistication of finance and accounting by the Fugger family dynasty. However, long gone are the days of traditional, dusty trading posts. Nowadays, corporate accounting, controlling, finance and accounting, bookkeeping and financial management are becoming increasingly dominant and important. Those specialty areas assume more and more advisory functions in adjacent fields and exert influence on business processes that cannot be underestimated.

Their importance is substantially increasing due to progressively legalistic and rigid international regulations and drastic national regulations.

The request of the public and of investors for transparent performance figures, the enormous cost pressure due to agile competitive markets, and the streamlining and downsizing of operational processes, tangible materials and employees call for instruments that promote the decision-making process. In situations like that, the management has to be able to rely on a well-founded base that is accurate and anticipates further corporate developments.

The importance of numbers remains unchanged.

Since 1992, we have recruited experts for the following areas:

•  Controlling
• Financial Accounting
• Cost Accounting
• Business Financing
• Billing
• Taxes
• Audit
• Trust
• Finance & Analysis

Finance and accounting, controlling, bookkeeping and billing – they are all essential instruments for managing and controlling a business. The complexity is unstoppably and continuously increasing due to exogenous and endogenous factors like national and international laws and regulations, supranational organizations, political interventions and restructuring measures. Since 1992, PKS Personal & Kaderselektion AG has specialized in recruiting and selecting experts, right and high potentials for the finance and accounting sector. Our personnel consultants have the right skills and expertise. Personnel recruitment is our daily business. We fill your vacancy!

For many years, PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has assisted the demanding Medical and Health Care sector in finding and selecting medical and health care experts.

Theophrastus Paracelsus

As early as 1527 to 1528, Paracelsus, the famous physician of the city of Basel, was officially permitted to hold lectures at the Faculty of Medicine at Basel University that were well attended. Contrary to what was customary at the time, he lectured in German and not in Latin. Since then, human medicine has undergone significant changes. The Vision of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Basel is to create a University Center for Medicine that focuses on excellent services, teaching and research.

 Specialized medicine and care have become a very important economic factor in Switzerland. The Medical fields have shown above-average growth in recent years and have become very important providers of demanding jobs and highly specialized medical services that are increasingly influential in the Swiss work environment.

 Basel has a long tradition of medical research and nursing sciences. Many of their findings and latest research results contribute to the fact that diseases all over the world can be battled more effectively and to highly specialized care that shortens the healing process due to its purposeful approach. Medical research fosters a close interdisciplinary collaboration with the chemical, pharmaceutical and biotechnological industry. Conglomerates with worldwide success and a multitude of smaller companies create a unique cluster of research in Northwest Switzerland for the benefit of our health.

Basel, the City of Medicine, is the first choice for many patients from all over the world

With an ever aging society due to demographic influences and the highest standard of medical care, the health care system and medical providers will face severe challenges in the future. As will staffing service providers, who have committed to personnel search and selection for the demanding field of Medical and Health Care. Due to the accentuated as well as forcibly growing commodification of high-quality medical care, the need to deliver as many medical services as possible for as little money as possible increases year by year, especially since the pressure by health insurance companies and their insured does not decrease. Together, academic as well as non-academic experts, managements in hospitals and health care institutions, nursing staff and para-medical sub-industries will have to face many new and challenging developments. Health economics will gain influence in the future, and, together with the medical and pharmaceutical industry will have to enter new territory in order to sustainably drive efficiencies by means of interdisciplinary research, teachings, medical treatments and care.

Thanks to this dynamic evolvement of medical providers and the high quality of basic services, Basel and Northwest Switzerland have become a regional growth leader in Switzerland. Even in the medical field. The huge investments in research and development keep growing year by year and reflect the inventive and entrepreneurial strength of this region.

Since 1992, PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has been specializing in the search and selection of academic and non-academic experts in the medical and health care sector. Our personnel consultants in charge of the Medical field have many years of experience in your field and speak your language. Personnel recruitment is our daily business. We fill your vacancy!

 We have been finding the right skilled personnel for the life science, pharmaceutical and chemical industry since 1992.

Basel - the trinational metrocity of Switzerland

The life sciences location of Basel is the Biovalley in the trinational Euro district of Basel. A huge success story at the heart of Europe. Both its university and industrial research enjoy a worldwide reputation and their products have regularly enjoyed the status of global blockbusters. PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has been supporting this demanding industry for many years in the search for skilled personnel and high potential.

The chemical, pharmaceutical and biotechnical industries make up the strongest force in North West Switzerland, and especially within the Basel economy. Large, internationally successful corporations and smaller companies make up a unique industrial cluster in the North West of Switzerland, making the city of Basel and the region of North West of Switzerland a national and internationally sought-after location for life sciences, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. No other region in the world provides such a high concentration of optimally qualified specialist personnel.

The general conditions for the chemical, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have improved continuously over recent decades. Sustained investment in training and research on the part of both the authorities and the companies has made enormous improvements in Basel’s quality as a location for life sciences, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Many new, successful companies in the field of life sciences have based themselves in the region. The Basel-Upper Rhine BioValley is also experiencing ongoing growth. Several hundred specialist biomedical and biotechnology companies and research facilities in the Upper Rhine region have formed the trans-regional BioValley Network – the trinational Silicon Valley of the biotechnology industry. This association benefits from the experience of the existing centres in North West Switzerland, in South Baden and in Alsace and has since become known internationally.

This highly progressive development of the biotechnology, chemical and pharmaceutical industries has made Basel and North West Switzerland a leader in regional growth within Switzerland.

Chemistry Jobs

This growth also provides other lucrative impulses for the whole country, making Switzerland even more attractive as an economic location and attracting investors from all over the world. The enormous investments in research and development increase from year to year and reflect the creative, entrepreneurial energy of these industries. Many outstanding products from the life sciences, pharmaceutical and chemical industries which were developed in Basel have gone down as blockbusters in international commercial history. The former industrial metropolis of Basel has become a successful, innovative research city. The exceptional interdisciplinary cooperation between the universities and the corporates strengthens the location’s advantages. Basel’s chemical and pharmaceutical research today enjoys a worldwide reputation. Basel’s tremendous research and innovation energy is also reflected in the large number of Nobel Prize Winners, one of the highest patent densities in the world and cutting edge medicine at the university hospitals.

The location has many advantages. Nowhere else in the world is there such a high concentration of highly qualified experts. Basel’s reputation as a cultured, ecological, progressive, international and integrative cultural, educational and economic metropolis also extends well beyond Europe. It combines small town advantages such as manageability and familiarity with city benefits like amplitude, depth of choice and diversity.

Definitely not! But it does have a lot to do with trust, relationships, discretion, knowledge and sector skills.

PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has been playing a focussed, active role in the field of executive search, management consultancy and management selection since 1992. Our name is our mission.

When did executive search start?

The cradle of executive search is to be found in the USA where the oldest executive search company was founded in New York in 1926. This form of business was largely unknown in Europe until the end of the 1960s/the start of the 1970s when the first companies specialising in this service were formed. There are now numerous service providers active in this business sector.

Why is a management staff search based on advertisements a fair method?

Since 1992, PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has found all of its high potential and management candidates with the use of electronic or traditional advertisements in the print media. In our experience, highly-qualified applicants who can be won over for a challenging new position on the basis of their own free will and without aggressive psychological enticement exhibit much more promising professional performance. The motivation for change should not come from power or financial incentive, but from the deep conviction that knowledge, ability, experience, personality and potential can be better utilised with a new career challenge. Inner satisfaction, internal balance, opportunities for professional development and, of course, substantial added value with regard to the hard factors, contribute to ensuring that new management personnel are satisfied, remain loyal, are performance orientated and are not tempted to give in to the next head hunter. Continuity and stability on the part of decision-makers have become important competitive advantages which are not to be underestimated. The pro-active acquisition of accumulated specialist knowledge is costly. The fostering and retention of personnel is much more cost effective.

Why do we disapprove of head hunting?

We fill your vacancy

The head hunting of potential candidates for specific management positions can be advantageous under certain circumstances and with specific requirements if a high degree of anonymity is required, there is no time pressure and the management function needs to be performed by a candidate with very specific experience and qualifications. However, as a matter of principle and for reasons of strict business ethics, PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG does not provide this service. Who can provide you with a guarantee that your head hunter is not on the prowl within your own company? The real problems start when the your star players suddenly disappear.

Assessment, Assessment Centre (AC), Individual Assessment

The first assessment was carried out by the German army after the First World War. At that time the overall military command, and the generals in particular, were of the opinion that officer candidates should undergo a thorough psychological military selection process to assess their suitability as leadership individuals. Social background or disdainful nepotistic protectionism were not to be the only criteria which decided on a military career, the candidates’ abilities were also to play a decisive role. The prognostic validity, that is, the so-called value of predictions regarding the suitability of applicants for specific positions from tried and tested assessment processes is now undisputed, it is well-documented in employment psychology literature and has been tried and tested in daily practice. The PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG team makes a firm distinction between this and the other consultancy services and uses external experts and assessors for the assessment of its candidates.

Why do we have the assessments and their evaluation carried out externally?

Many personnel service providers recruit their applicants and also provide employment psychology methods as “all-in-one solutions”, so to speak. However, even with a high degree of professionalism, the critical distance is often subject to negligent clouding and dilution as a result of economic considerations. Is the objectivity of the assessment really guaranteed if the same personnel service provider has already had a lot of contact and spent a lot of working time with these candidates? What happens if the important convergence of a proven objective match between the assessment report and the recruiter’s appraisal is lacking, even if this has ideally been compiled ‘independently’ by two different, psychologically trained experts? Do you really have a guarantee that, with difficult recruitment processes which have perhaps been put under further pressure due to a lack of time and a depleted budget, the results have not been optimised in order to simply fill the position? Only an external, expert psychological second or third opinion guarantees method neutrality and a non-judgmental assessment focussed solely on the applicants, leaving out economic interests.

Potential analysis, location conditions

In contrast to the assessment, the potential analysis is much quicker and more cost-effective. Most of the products on offer are valid and meaningful from an employment psychology perspective. However, it does not achieve the same degree of insight as with the assessment. The potential analysis provides a structured investigation of the existence of specific qualities. It provides clearly structured information on issues regarding the person’s abilities. The most important aspect is the appraisal of the future options available to a person in their personal and especially their professional environment. In addition, companies can use the potential analysis to assess the professional suitability and compatibility of entire teams. Potential analyses within the personnel field are carried out in different applications and with a variety of methods. This enables the use of structured questionnaires to establish one’s own career potential or to check the requirement profile for personnel selection. The potential analysis therefore serves to compile the ability potential for future activities.

 The potential analysis covers the following areas:

• knowledge
• abilities
• motivation
• personality features

The potential analysis is also not to be underestimated as an important instrument for personnel loyalty. Under- or overworked staff members can lead to an expensive lack of motivation. The insights provided by such data can provide important indications as to how staff members can be better deployed. The potential analysis is very important for management positions as an error of judgement here can have serious consequences for the company’s success.

Why do we have the potential analysis carried out externally?

Swiss made recruitment

The expert objective distance of the service providers who also compile a potential analysis of your applicants is usually only sub-optimally developed and, at best, suggestively influenced, if a commercial client relationship also exists. PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG also works with external, specialist service providers in this field who have a great deal of experience in the specific areas. This avoids a conflict of interests at the expense of the client and the applicants.

Why do we not think very highly of graphological assessments?

Graphological assessments are seldom used in personnel selection. As a rule, they use spontaneous, handwritten excerpts but the scientific method and validity of graphology are hotly disputed. The sharper critics maintain that graphology is as meaningful as reading tea leaves. PKS Personal- & Kaderselektion AG has never been a provider of this means of assessment.

Conclusion

Executive Search, management consultancy and management selection require a correct professional, factual und methodical approach. The recruiter’s critical distance and independence from employment psychology options is an important primary prerequisite in ensuring the desired validity and substance. We fill your vacancy.
