At AP, we understand the challenges employers face when seeking great candidates. Our approach to hiring is not just about filling empty positions; it’s about building relationships and fostering a community that thrives on collaboration and growth.
The Power of Community
Rochester is a vibrant city with a diverse talent pool rich in innovation and creativity. Tapping into local networks can help you connect with candidates who have the necessary skills and align with your company culture and values.
Relationship-Focused Recruitment
Great candidates are tired of feeling like just another cog in the machine and want genuine relationships with their employers.
Our recruitment process is built on transparency, communication and respect. Taking the time to understand a candidate’s aspirations and career goals ensures that both parties find the best fit. By investing time in these connections, the candidate experience improves, and retention rates skyrocket as employees feel valued and understood.
The Importance of a Culture Fit (or Add)
Skills alone are not enough to ensure success on the job. We assess both technical abilities and alignment with company culture and values.
Even better is the culture add; when an organization recognizes that a fresh perspective can reach new potential.
Leveraging Technology
When we opened our doors in 1996, LinkedIn and advanced applicant tracking software did not exist. As hiring technology continues to mature, we grow and adapt, ensuring we remain vigilant in attracting top talent. Utilizing applicant tracking systems and data analytics allows us to identify trends, evaluate candidate pools effectively and enhance our decision-making process.
A great candidate is so much more than an algorithm or even their resume. Technology advancement aside, we never lose that human touch.
