Marketing With
Distinction, LLC conducts traditional search
assignments for sales, marketing and corporate
communications professionals on either a retained
or exclusive contingency basis.
Unique
Perspective
Melissa Wall, the
firm’s principal, conducts searches on behalf
of clients. She brings a unique perspective to
the recruiter role given her direct corporate
experience in sales, marketing and corporate communications.
Clients value using a recruiting partner that
intimately understands the roles, mindset and
inherent responsibilities in a sales, marketing
or corporate communications function.
The Search Process
The search process
starts by developing a job description with the
client and by understanding the company’s
culture and goals. We like, where possible,
to visit the client’s offices and see the
company in its daily life. The surroundings and
culture of an organization are a key factor in
what type of individual will be ultimately successful.
The hardest part
of any search is the first three to four weeks.
This is when candidates are surfaced – either
through our confidential database, or
by research and outreach. Almost always, the best
candidate doesn’t emerge instantly.
This is because
he or she may belong to the group of passive job
seekers that are enjoying their current positions.
These are not people that have their resume posted
on popular job search engines and most likely
are not checking them for job postings either.
It’s our job to find those people,
engage them in a conversation on the client’s
behalf, determine their suitability, and present
a select group of potential candidates for the
client to meet.
A Recruiting
Partner with Integrity
We do not introduce
a large number of candidates in the hope that
one of them sticks. To us, it’s about finding
the right fit for both the company and the candidate
and treating both parties professionally and with
respect. Our candidates are thoroughly interviewed
– always in person – in order to determine
their suitability for the position.
