Today’s Detached, Indifferent Process
Based on our years of experience working with numerous staffing agencies (either to help us find qualified, passionate marketing and IT candidates or interviewing with them ourselves), the vast majority lack the time, desire, industry experience, and/or skills to fully immerse themselves in the recruitment process beyond a surface level. Rarely do they show an authentic interest in truly getting to know the company or candidate on a deeper level. It’s seems to be all about securing as many placements as possible to keep their cash register ringing…not about being an empathetic, caring, strategic partner.
A Refreshing Alternative: A Strategic, Attentive Partner
When you partner with us on your marketing and IT openings, you will work closely with a strategic, compassionate recruiter who is just as concerned about the means to the end (understanding your company and challenges, nurturing the relationship, timely communication, open transparency, and thorough process) instead of just the end (placing the candidate). We always put ourselves in your shoes.
After what feels like superficial, disingenuous interest in your company, too many recruitment agencies today just want to jump to getting the job description, blast it out, and have technology (i.e., applicant tracking systems or AI) select the candidates. Then, a recruiter with little to no experience in, passion for, or knowledge of current marketing or IT trends interviews them.
Our Services
Company Deep Dive
Before ever discussing your marketing or IT staffing needs, we get to know all about your company through our own research and conversations with you: your leaders, history, culture, latest news, goals, mission, challenges….
Position Persona
What is the salary range for the marketing or IT professional you’re searching for? What are common skills gaps for the role? What are the most desired skills and traits important for the role? What trends are driving the position persona? What are their top concerns and wishes? We’ll paint a revealing picture of the marketing or IT professional you are searching for and share it with you.
Comprehensive Reporting and Feedback
How likely is it for the candidate to be highly successful at your company and be a great cultural fit? For each hand-picked candidate that we identify, interview, and recommend that you interview; we provide you a robust report that includes a thorough candidate profile and background, our detailed feedback and thoughts, and scoring across several critical variables.
Identify Better Candidates
First and foremost, we will never use applicant tracking systems, AI or any other bot to screen marketing or IT candidates. We will leverage our current candidate pool of awesome candidates and extensive, well-connected network that we have built & nurtured over several decades. We will explore passive candidates. We will leverage social media. And we will review every resume with our own deeply experienced eyes. This is our promise to you.
Superior, Role-Based Interviews
Having spent decades in marketing and IT departments, interviewing hundreds of candidates ourselves over the years, and staying current with the latest industry trends, we know the better questions to ask and what answers to look for vs. lifelong recruiters with little, if any, experience in the role they’re recruiting for. We also know it’s critical to judge not only hard skills but personality, soft skills, attitude, and passion.
Post-Hire Follow Through
After you select and officially hire our candidate, we don’t see this as ‘mission accomplished.’ We genuinely care that everything is going well during the first few months and that you and the candidate are happy. These check-ins and feedback are very important for us to continue to provide superior candidates and an enhanced experience to other companies and candidates.
Craft Enticing Job Descriptions
We would love to either draft a compelling job description that makes your company and opening shine or help improve it
Background Checks
If you would like us to execute and share the full background check on a candidate, we will gladly do it.
Are you ready for an amazing experience in your search for the most qualified, most passionate marketing and/or IT professionals?
