Design Recruitment Agency
Prosperity Digital has been at the forefront of recruiting design professionals for over 20 years. We have built extensive databases and networks of design and product specialists.
We have a team of specialised recruiters who combine experience and passion for design. They have taken courses, have worked in design, and have a good understanding of the particularities of the market and the competition.
When we approach the recruitment of a design professional with a client, our focus is to clearly understand and define the needs of the specific company. Based on this, we review potential candidates whose values are aligned with those, with a track record of implementing solutions that have achieved the business objectives of their previous employers.
The key points we strive for our clients to understand:
It is rarely just about the skills and experience you are looking for in a designer, we want to ensure that the new potential addition to the team has a clear understanding of your business and your needs.
We explain to our clients that they need to clearly explain the business objectives to the candidate and agree on a clear vision on how to execute the objectives; how to achieve this synergy, and therefore, drive your business vision.
We advise our clients to clearly understand and assess the motivations of each candidate they interview. Technical ability and experience are, of course, very important, but the hiring manager must understand the designer's vision, drive and personality and decide whether they will complement the team and the ongoing relationship. The reason we emphasise this is because HR managers often tick the boxes of experience and hire a candidate who is not necessarily have a cultural or creative fit with the organisation.
Some of the criteria by which we assess designers:
We ask potential candidates how they could work with our client's team - how would they fit in and what would make them a vital part of the team?
As design specialists often work in a collaborative environment, we ask them how their teammates would describe them. The answers to this question can reveal plenty of interesting insights.
We advise our clients to present candidates with a task: a UI designer will have a portfolio and should demonstrate a considerable body of work, but with a design specialist it can be more of a challenge. A good solution is to present them with a wireframe and ask them to improve it. A good candidate will, of course, take the user's perspective on the task: who the users are and why they use it.
We usually examine design candidates on the process they use to help them understand the needs of the end users. We talk about previous projects in terms of complexity, budget, actions and outcomes. We ask them how they could bring design principles and match them to our client's specific needs.
Process of collaboration with Prosperity:
When a client decides to engage our services, these are the steps we follow:
- We conduct a thorough screening of all our candidates before presenting them to our clients.
- We speed up the process - within 10 - 12 working days we will propose 3 to 5 top candidates with a summary of the most relevant information about them.
- We select candidates according to personality criteria as well as technical knowledge.
If we are successful in placing a position, but for whatever reason the candidate does not fit into your first two months of employment, we provide a replacement at no additional cost.
And of course: if we do not find you the perfect addition to your team, we will not charge you :)
