hiring tips

Hiring the right candidate for your company can be difficult – and hiring the wrong candidate can cost your business time, money, and important opportunities for growth. Working with a seasoned recruiter can help to alleviate these difficulties, making finding the best candidate a simple, streamlined process instead of an ongoing nightmare. Throughout the hiring process here are a few things to keep in mind:

Companies are only as good as their people, so it’s worth investing in a recruiter to help find those talented individuals for you – it’s so important for your company’s future.
The longer you take to build a solid team, the further ahead your competition will be – so don’t wait too long to start looking for top talent.
It’s important for a candidate to find the right “fit” within a company, and likewise, it’s important that you feel the candidate is the right fit for you. During the hiring process, be sure to ask questions that will help you determine if the candidate is the right fit for your organization.
Think big picture – working with our team isn’t a one-time transaction. Our goal is to build a solid relationship over time, allowing us to continue to help find the best candidates for your organization as your company grows.
Be as detailed as possible when explaining the position you are looking to fill – this helps us find the best possible candidate for the role, and also helps to streamline he process.

Marissa was recommended to me by a colleague, after working with her on an important search for my company I got to see first-hand why. Marissa was responsive, took the time to understand what we were looking for even though we weren’t entirely sure of all that we needed. She sprang into action providing some great candidates and top-level service. We ended up hiring a senior digital executive who has been delivering since day one.

Chris Schembri, Founder + CEO @ Aletheia Marketing & Media

For the past 8 years, I have been relying on Marissa Hansen to help scale the Marketing functions of some of Boston's best digital hyper-growth companies and Ad agencies. Since 2011, Hansen has been the only agency partner I have taken with me, from TripAdvisor to Wayfair to iProspect and now Mendix. She sets the gold standard in attracting and evaluating the best Marketing & Digital Advertising talent in the market, and beyond that, I genuinely enjoy working with her. She's smart, professional and tenacious. I can't recommend her enough.

Andree Grenier, Sr. Talent Acquisition Partner – Mendix

Hansen Recruiting just GETS IT. They are by far the best recruiting agency I have ever worked with. With most recruiting agencies, it takes weeks of back and forth to get the right caliber of candidate - with Hansen, we get great quality from the start. They also understand that I'm strapped for time - that's why we work with them - and they project manage me effectively to make sure we are moving forward. I can't recommend them highly enough!

Ryan Markman , COO @ Metric Digital

Amy is one of the best recruiters I’ve worked with. As a recruiter myself, I have a very high bar when it comes to partnering with someone on my own search, but Amy immediately won my respect. She takes the time to get to know her candidates AND clients. She presented my resume to her client knowing they’d like my background, even though they didn’t have a role at my level. Two weeks later, I had an offer. One thing I appreciated most throughout the process was her responsiveness; she's quick to return a call or respond to an email, even after hours. And on top of it all, she’s just a really nice person that you genuinely enjoy working with.

Leah R., Senior Recruiter @ an online travel company

I was very happy at my job when Amy approached me with an opportunity. Her sale of the position to me and her non-aggressive manner convinced me to take an interview with the company. I realized right away what an amazing opportunity it was and Amy took me through the process from interviews to negotiations with ease. Had the process not been as simple and Amy not been so helpful, I am not sure that I would have taken this new role. She was available to me at all hours, was great at keeping me updated and super low pressure. I highly recommend Amy for digital marketing recruitment needs.

Lisa C., Director Earned Media @ a global digital performance marketing agency

I can always count on Marissa and her team to put the best, most qualified candidates in our path. They are a top-notch firm with professional and timely correspondence.”

Judi Startzman, VI Marketing and Branding + VP Strategic Marketing

Marissa is an outstanding recruiting partner. She helped fill a difficult role with my company that had been open for quite some time. Throughout the process, she was readily available, and provided great insight and advice. I wholeheartedly recommend Marissa to anyone with difficult-to-fill positions in the eCommerce space.
