Long-Time Vacant Position Placed Quickly with the Help of Profiles
The Client
Head of Recruitment at a non-profit organization was unable to backfill a Marketing Specialist role that was open for five months after an employee departure. Profiles was enlisted and successfully filled the position and the candidate is thriving in the position.
The Challenge
The head of recruitment from a non-profit organization reached out to Profiles for assistance following the departure of their digital Marketing Specialist who had left five months prior. The head of recruitment had no understanding of how to recruit Marketing & Creative talent, so they turned to Profiles for help. The open position was posted appropriately, and the post was receiving an influx of applicants, most were unqualified for the job. The position was open for quite some time before the client enlisted Profiles.
The Solution
Profiles initiated a Direct Hire solution and successfully found and presented four candidates for this position. Two of these candidates were interviewed, and one was eventually hired to fill this longstanding, open position.
The Results
Profiles helped fill a creative & marketing role that the head of recruitment had no prior experience recruiting for. With Profiles assistance, our candidate was hired and now leads the non-profit’s DEI program. The CEO of the organization conducted the final interview before hiring and spoke highly of the new hire.
