The Kompass candidate network

Since 2014, the Kompass candidate network has grown organically to over 10,000+ finance, executive, and management professionals across Germany — and continues to grow every day.

The vast majority of our candidates have been fully pre-screened, interviewed in depth, and their unique strengths carefully documented. Each candidate profile captures their knowledge, experience, strengths, and motivations — giving you deeper personality and career insights from the very first introduction.

GDPR and Confidentiality

We are fully GDPR compliant and ensure the complete security and confidentiality of all candidate and client data held for recruitment purposes. Private documents and information are never shared without your knowledge and consent.

Our Approach

The Kompass Methodology

Through years of repeated practice and ongoing research, we have developed a pre-screening and interviewing process that completes every piece of the puzzle.

Every new potential candidate is interviewed at length on first introduction and regularly throughout an application process. Many of our candidates have been in career dialogue with us for a number of years and we can achieve an incredible degree of openness and understanding with them over their career.

When it comes to credentials, we are also experts on academic quality and professional accreditation. We can also read ‘between the lines’ of what references do and often don’t say.

Our interviews follow a defined set of guidelines ensuring nothing important is missed. We break these down into 4 core areas: Knowledge, Experience, Strengths and Motivations.

Education Standards
Further Study / Finance Accreditation
Training and Apprenticeships Internships
Language Skills
Role Specific Knowledge
Industry Knowledge
Accounting Practices
IT & Software

Our success guarantee

We believe our deeper pre-selection methodology saves you time by identifying any concerns about a candidate’s suitability from the outset.

This means really positive interviews and no last-minute revelations that take your search back to square one. Our approach leads to great hiring decisions and long-term careers.

This is why we confidently offer you a 3-month replacement guarantee if a new starter doesn’t pass the probation period.

Our Mission

Deliver the best recruitment experience

Our clients really appreciate what we do. That's why we've been recognised and awarded many times for both Client and Candidate Experience. What makes this special is that these awards were judged on real-life, positive testimonies from hiring managers and candidates who've worked with Kompass. We know that consistently delivering the best recruitment experience is key to our success — but more importantly, it builds the openness and trust that lead to great hiring decisions. That's how motivated employees begin long-term careers, and where employers truly reap the benefits.
