A thoughtful approach to finding the brightest talent.
The Challenge
You want to hit the ground running, but where do you start?
Many progressive organizations are new to hiring staff and are expected to “figure it out” on the fly. While you know that the talent you bring on is critical to your success, your networks may not be producing candidates who are truly representative of who your organization strives to be.
Perhaps you’re being courted by corporate recruiters or hiring firms. But let’s face it: They do not know the unique needs, skills sets, and requirements (NGPVAN, political communications, election structures, and more) of progressive organizations.
Meso does.
