Apex Executive Search cut time-to-fill by 58% with Placr’s Client Portal
“Our clients are C-suite leaders. They don’t have time for clunky portals and long email threads. Placr gives them a decision-making experience worthy of the calibre of candidates we present.”
Diana Okafor
Managing Director, Apex Executive Search
Apex specializes in C-level and VP-level placements where every detail matters. Their previous workflow relied on formatted PDF candidate packs sent via email, which led to version confusion, lost feedback, and an average client response time of 5.2 days. For senior hires commanding six-figure salaries, every day of delay cost their clients real productivity.
Placr’s Client Portal transformed how Apex presents candidates to hiring committees. AI-generated executive summaries highlight leadership experience, cultural fit indicators, and compensation benchmarks. Multiple stakeholders review the same shortlist simultaneously, with a consensus view that shows alignment and areas for discussion. The branded portal matches Apex’s premium positioning.
