Advantage Concepts, Inc. Begins Search for Hiring Push

TOWSON, Md. - Dec. 8, 2014 - PRLog -- Every succeeding business will, from time to time, land in a situation that requires the quick hiring of new personnel. This is precisely what happened at Advantage Concepts, Inc. Due to a recent and major increase in demand, the firm’s management is pushing to expand its team. Michael L., the firm’s president described the process as an exciting way to add new perspectives to the group.

“We want to finish the year strong,” he elaborated. “This means that we need to add new talent to both help us serve increasing demand and add new creative minds to our team.”

He stated that he and his team are proud to provide new jobs to the region. According to Michael, the ability to give back to the community is extremely important to Advantage Concepts, Inc., and hiring more people is a real win-win. He also indicated that they are looking for energetic and passionate individuals hoping to do something different with their careers.

“Even within the marketing industry, we offer a fairly unique experience,” he explained. “Our methods are energetic and personal. We have a great group of trainers who can teach anyone how to succeed – all we need are candidates with enthusiasm.”

Advantage Concepts, Inc. Identifies Best Recruiting Practices

Michael also pointed to some of the best practices used by Advantage Concepts, Inc. to achieve successful recruiting campaigns. One tactic that he immediately highlighted was hiring during the winter season, as his team is currently doing.

“December is an underappreciated month for recruitment,” he stated. “The holiday season gets people excited about trying new things, and interested in advancement as well. Furthermore, there’s relatively little competition for top talent. It is also easy to get exposure with new audiences, considering the traveling people are doing this time of year.”

Many corporate recruitment cycles have a rush early in the fourth quarter followed by a significant lull at the end of the year. Michael explained that it is this lull that allows him to tap into high-powered candidates while others’ hiring budgets are running out.

He also pointed out qualities that recruiters should look for in a candidate. Cultural fit is as important, if not more so, than technical skill, according to Michael. He looks for individuals who are both competent and compatible with his organization.

“There are many different personality types,” he elaborated. “Finding the right ones for your group is essential to effective collaboration, their job satisfaction, and the overall success of your recruitment efforts. As such, we always prioritize soft skills and personality over other factors when hiring.”
