A prominent independent PR firm, which operates across various industries such as healthcare, technology, finance, and consumer goods, needed to quickly fill 15 SAE/AS positions. These levels are the most critical and the hardest to find talent for.
The firm was looking for candidates who were not only skilled in public relations and media relations but also demonstrated a passion for the specific industries in which they would be working. The challenge was to identify 15 high-quality candidates who would fit the specific needs of each practice while aligning with the global PR firm’s culture and values. Geography of each role could vary as well.
Given the urgency of the hiring needs and the specialized nature of the roles, the PR firm retained Ikon Search. Ikon Search successfully placed all 15 candidates across the various practices, meeting the client’s hiring needs within a short time frame allowing the firm to continue to serve its clients without disruption.
