Baker Tilly US, LLP 380 Jackson Street, Suite 300 St. Paul, MN 55101 T: +1 (651) 223 3000 F: +1 (651) 223 3046 bakertilly.com August 24, 2020 Ms. Nicole Miller Administrative Services Coordinator City of St. Anthony Village 3301 Silver Lake Road St. Anthony Village, MN 55418 Dear Ms. Miller: Baker Tilly US, LLP (Baker Tilly) appreciates the opportunity to submit the following proposal for executive recruitment services to the City of St. Anthony Village to help you identify your next City Manager. We believe that our record of successfully placing qualified and very accomplished professionals, along with our extensive experience providing executive recruitment services to cities, counties and other public- sector organizations nationwide, will be beneficial for your recruitment and will allow us to find the candidate who has the traits, skills, experience and overall competence you desire for your organization. We know that you have options when it comes to selecting a recruitment firm. However, we believe that our unique approach, highly regarded customer service practices, and our record of identifying and recruiting top level executives in similar roles, sets us apart from our competitors. Additionally, we offer the following unique features: − Customized profile development: working with the members of the City Council and designated staff, we develop a customized candidate profile based on the required, desired and preferred qualifications, traits and attributes you seek in the individual you interview or hire for your next City Manager. We strive to understand how the City’s current and anticipated needs and organizational priorities will shape your recruiting and selection requirements; then we collaborate with you to develop a nationwide or regional marketing, recruiting and outreach campaign. This approach has proven to effectively allow us to identify, attract and recruit highly qualified candidates for your review. − Proprietary management/leadership assessment: relying on exclusively licensed predictive analytics tools (using data to determine patterns and forecast future outcomes and trends), we administer assessments to selected applicants to help us identify human potential in each of the candidates we present to you. Results are “Real,” “Impactful,” and “Powerful.” Furthermore, these results can provide you with more profound insights into the candidate’s management traits and leadership styles based on scientific data. − Recorded video interviews: we ask selected candidates (semi-finalists) to complete a recorded, one- way video interview, using questions developed from your “candidate profile,” which gives your review team an additional tool to evaluate the semi-finalists before inviting them to a face-to-face interview. − Proprietary online application management: our exclusively licensed, proprietary online application system enables us to efficiently manage applicant flow, classification and allows us to communicate with each applicant quickly and effectively. We communicate in real time with applicants, thereby engaging and informing them of each step, search related assignment and corresponding timeline throughout the process. Our system also allows us to access, review and evaluate thousands of prior applicants or individuals who have manifested interest in similar positions. Generally, these are individuals who may not be actively seeking a job, but who may be open to “the right opportunity.” This is another benefit and advantage we provide to our clients, which enables us to access a larger number of active and passive job seekers.
