About the role

About the Program

The Analyst Program is a structured, 10 month career launcher into Executive Search. Analysts receive dedicated mentorship from True’s top leaders, and develop business skills in research, communication, critical thinking, project & client management, and team collaboration. You'll join a cohort of peers training together in Philadelphia, before acting as a strategic partner to senior search teams, working directly on high-profile placements for companies driving the global economy.

The program runs across three rotations, building towards a strong foundation in market mapping and intelligence, pipeline execution, and recruiting strategy with Analysts targeting 5–7 concurrent searches by the final rotation. Our goal is to prepare high-performing Analysts to step into an Associate role at the end of the program.

What You’ll Do

Month 1: Classroom Training (Philadelphia)

An intensive, in-person "mini-MBA" led directly by True's top leaders — establishing business acumen, technical baseline competencies, and professional norms before you join a live search team, and building fluency in True’s approach to Search.

  • In-Office Commitment: five days a week during classroom training, so you get the most face-time with your cohort and True's leaders.

Month 2: Rotations Begin

Once classroom training ends, you'll rotate through different industry and functional practices to experience the breadth of the business as you steadily ramp up in search volume.

  • Research — identify potential candidate archetypes with an understanding of company and market ecosystems, and build out target company lists.
  • Pipeline Development — drive candidate outreach and generate a healthy pipeline for searches.
  • Candidate & Data Integrity — manage the full candidate lifecycle over time and ensure data is captured and kept accurate on our Candidate Relationship System (CRM), Thrive.
  • Client Updates — attend weekly update calls with the search team and client to report on search progress.
  • Shadow — work closely with the search team and shadow them on calls and meetings to learn quickly.

Who You Are

  • Recent graduate, or graduating within the next 12 months, with a long-term career interest in executive search.
