About Wimbush & Associates
Wimbush & Associates operates as Discovered Search, a specialized recruitment firm based in Brea that focuses on executive search and fractional recruiting services. The company utilizes their proprietary FACT Driven Hiring System to deliver high-quality hires across specialized industries.
Discovered Search provides comprehensive recruitment solutions through two primary service offerings: fractional recruiting and executive search. Their fractional recruiting service operates on a flat monthly rate model, providing unlimited candidate sourcing and screening for dental practices, MSP, and construction businesses without traditional agency markups. This approach offers predictable costs and continuous recruitment support.
For leadership and specialized roles, the company conducts retained and contained executive searches across construction, accounting, and architecture & engineering sectors. Their proprietary FACT Driven Hiring System serves as the foundation for all recruitment activities, focusing on evidence-based, repeatable processes that aim to produce higher-quality hires while reducing turnover.
The FACT system encompasses four key components: Framework (defining success with scorecards and benchmarks), Attract (building candidate pipelines with targeted sourcing), Candidate Evaluation (using assessments and reference checks to predict high performers), and Training (providing onboarding playbooks to improve retention and early performance). This methodology is powered by Discovered.ai technology, enhancing the precision and effectiveness of their recruitment processes.
With over 30 years of recruiting expertise, Discovered Search maintains a 95% fulfillment rate on engaged searches and achieves 92% candidate retention above industry benchmarks. Their approach eliminates traditional 20-30% agency markups through their flat monthly recruiting model, making professional recruitment services more accessible and cost-effective for specialized industries.
