FAQs

What makes Beacon Resources different from other recruiting firms?

Beacon Resources’ recruiters go beyond the job description and set out to make a match that yields superior results. We take the time to get to know every client and candidate thoroughly. We tell the client’s story, enticing passive and active candidates to explore opportunities in the market. Our people-focused methodology, combined with extensive industry expertise, delivers extraordinary business success to our clients and candidates.

Why should I work with Beacon Resources instead of responding directly to job postings on the Internet?

When a company posts a job, the HR department is inundated with resumes. Your resume is unlikely to get the attention it deserves. Our expert team of Executive Recruiters has long-standing relationships with accounting and finance hiring managers throughout our markets. This gives us the ability to personally connect you with the open opportunity. Our process includes presenting the top candidates for each position, helping our clients select the ideal candidate for the job. Rather than posting public job listings, many of our clients turn directly to us for their openings due to our rich and experienced talent base.

What types of companies do you work with?

Beacon Resources services clients from VC-backed startups to the Fortune 1000 with offices in the Greater Los Angeles, Orange County and the San Francisco Bay Area markets.

Is there a fee involved in finding a position?

Our services are complimentary for candidates. Only clients who utilize our services to retain talent for interim or permanent placement incur a fee.

I am interested in finding a new position, but don’t want my current employer to find out. Can you still help me?

At Beacon Resources, ethics and honesty are top priorities and we handle these situations in a very discreet manner. Your Executive Recruiter will work with you to determine what method of communication works best to ensure your privacy.

Will my resume be sent out to a potential employer without my knowledge?

Your Executive Recruiter will contact you to discuss job opportunities before sending your resume to potential employers.

How long might it take to find an opportunity?

Our clients contact us with immediate openings every week. High-demand positions typically fill more quickly. After meeting with an Executive Recruiter and evaluating your skills, goals and needs, the process can be very swift. Your skill set, geographic flexibility and other requirements affect the time it takes to find the right opportunity.

What happens once I submit my resume for a job opportunity?

When you submit a resume online, your information will be immediately routed to the appropriate Executive Recruiter for your area and your selected opportunity. Our team member will review your information and if you are a match, contact you to schedule an in-person interview. If you are not a match but have the expertise our clients are looking for, we will still contact you for consideration for additional opportunities.

What types of benefits do you offer?

Our benefit package includes Medical, Dental, Vision, Dependent Care FSA plan, 401(k) and California Sick Leave. Benefit package specifics will be presented to you when you are placed on an interim opportunity.

Where are you located?

Beacon Resources is headquartered in Woodland Hills, California. We have offices serving the Greater Los Angeles Area, Orange County, Chicago and the San Francisco Bay Area markets.

Do you work locally or nationally?

Beacon Resources places talent within the firm’s Southern California, Northern California and Chicago markets. Through our highly collaborative approach and partner firms in The DLC Group, we are able to provide additional services in our designated national regions.

How does the application process work?

Once your resume has been submitted and reviewed we will contact you to begin the comprehensive interview process. As part of this process, you will meet with an Executive Recruiter who will get to know your industry-specific skills and business acumen. During the in-depth interview, we also explore your career goals, talents and intangible assets. Once we have determined that you meet our rigorous criteria, we confirm your expertise by speaking with references and performing a detailed background check. From there, you will be entered into our talent database and will be considered for opportunities that suit your technical and secondary skills as well as goals and interests.

It has been a while since I updated my resume. Do you have any tips?

We do not require a specific format for resumes. Your resume should follow a standard format showcasing career progression, education and credentials. Additionally, make sure your resume is formatted consistently, has proper grammar and spelling without boxes and tables. Please present your resume in a chronological order and clearly indicate dates associated with each position and milestone. We accept resumes in either Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF formats.

What kind of support can I expect from Beacon Resources?

We will help guide you throughout the interim or permanent placement process. Your Executive Recruiter will provide resume suggestions, interview tips and preparation as well as overall career advice. Our goal is to be your long-term partner and resource.

I still have questions. Who can I contact?
