Your Hiring Strategy Is Broken (Here's Why)

Question for you. So what percent and you might not know this, but what percent of people for MP Digital right now of new hires are sourced versus, you know, coming through a job ad? I have no idea. I'll tell you this. I do know this interesting fact. Okay? So we were going we're recruiting some people right now for some of our tools, Ubersuggest and AnswerThePublic. So then Mike starts hitting up our recruiting team or someone on our team. I don't know who it was. And they were just like, hey. I need help with these roles. And they're like, we don't have the time. And Mike's like, what do you mean we don't have the time? They're like, we're already overwhelmed. We have, like, 48 open roles right now that we're working on. And he's like, oh. So then Mike just started doing it himself and started recruiting. Yep. But with that many open roles, there's no way that it's being filled by network. Mhmm. It's I'm assuming a lot of it is just going out there and recruiting.

But we were thinking about hiring one person whose job is to work with all the big organizations we have, and their only job would be to land and expand. So if you're a company like McDonald's, who we don't work with, but I'm gonna use them as an example because we don't work with them, Their job would be like, we have Brazil here, and we have, Europe here. We used to work with McDonald's. We wanna go and network with the people at McDonald's and try to get the relationships for the rest of Europe, then get them from North America, then get them from Canada, and work with them for not just a cohesive strategy, but more so work with them to sell within the company and more of a global role who not just builds relationships with our clients, but also is in sales.
