C3 runs a milestone-backed process for every mandate and every candidate — so you always know what's happening, what comes next, and what our commitments are.
From the moment you share a mandate to the day your new hire reports — every step is structured, milestone-driven, and accountable. You will never wonder where things stand — we report proactively at each stage.
A dedicated senior C3 consultant is assigned. We conduct a structured role briefing — going beyond the JD to understand your team culture, what failure looks like, what success looks like, and the compensation landscape for the role.
We activate our proprietary BFSI database of 25,000+ professionals, cross-referencing active and passive candidates, referrals from alumni placements, and sector-specific sourcing channels. For exec mandates, headhunting begins immediately.
Every profile is assessed by a BFSI-domain consultant — covering technical fit, regulatory knowledge, certifications, culture alignment, and salary expectations. We reject profiles that don't meet criteria rather than passing the filter problem to you.
You receive 4–8 profiles — not a bulk CV drop — each accompanied by our consultant's assessment notes covering strengths, fit rationale, watch points, and suggested interview angles. Maximum signal, minimum noise.
We manage the offer, coordinate counter-offer handling, confirm joining, and conduct 30-day and 90-day check-ins. If a placed candidate exits before 90 days, we provide a free replacement — no questions, no delays.
When you submit your profile to C3, it doesn't go into a black hole — it goes to a specialist who understands your field and will call you within 48 hours. Here's what you can expect from Day 1 onward.
Upload your CV and share your career preferences — current role, target sector, preferred location, CTC expectations, certifications, and availability. No registration or login needed. The submission is free and confidential.
A C3 consultant who specialises in your target BFSI sub-sector reviews your profile and calls you within 48 business hours. This is a real career conversation — about your goals, your strengths, the gaps you want to close, and what the right move looks like.
We match your profile to active mandates from our BFSI client network — including roles never posted publicly. We only make introductions where there's a genuine fit. Before every interview, we brief you: the company, the culture, the interviewer style, and how to present your strongest case.
We help you evaluate your offer, negotiate confidently, and coordinate joining formalities. After joining, we check in at 30 days and 90 days — not because we're monitoring you, but because we're invested in your success beyond the placement.
These are not marketing claims — they are service-level commitments written into every engagement. C3 has honoured each of these guarantees since inception, and they are the primary reason most clients return for every new mandate.
A curated shortlist of 4–8 screened, consultant-assessed BFSI profiles delivered within 72 working hours of mandate confirmation. If we cannot meet this — we proactively notify you and provide a revised, committed timeline.
If a candidate placed by C3 exits the organisation before completing 90 days for any reason, we provide a qualified replacement at no additional charge. No disputes, no delays, no paperwork — we simply restart the search.
For retained executive mandates at VP level and above, the replacement guarantee extends to 6 months post-joining. Leadership transitions carry higher onboarding costs — this guarantee reflects our confidence in the quality of every executive placement.
Whether you're a hiring manager with an urgent role to fill or a BFSI professional exploring what's out there — the process starts with a single conversation.
