Iconic Promotions Uses Strategic Methods to Add Talent

Iconic Promotions' director of operations shared some of the unique questions company leaders ask during job interviews. She also outlined the firm's approach for attracting top young talent.

​The leaders at Iconic Promotions know that standard recruiting practices will only yield standard hires. That’s why they use progressive methods to evaluate intern and job candidates, and why they ask unusual questions during interviews. “We want to learn as much as we can about each candidate’s personality and skills,” added Nadia, the firm’s director of operations. “It’s the only way to know how a person will fit into your culture, and we prefer to learn those things through carefully planned questions.”

One question Nadia loves to ask is whether a candidate is fueled by a drive to succeed or the fear of failing. As she explained, “There’s really no right answer here; it’s more about delving into the person’s true motivations. I often follow up by asking what has allowed the person to be successful in the past. High achievers tend to know exactly why they have success, and it’s always nice to know that a person brings a successful approach.”

Nadia also likes to ask what makes a candidate happy. As she said, “The idea here isn’t to judge what brings someone happiness; you’re just looking for an authentic response. When you feel a person has the right attitude to thrive in your organization, your decision becomes much easier. To me, that’s the value this question offers.”

Millennials and fresh college graduates are currently taking advantage of a vastly improved job market. Nadia and the rest of the Iconic Promotions leadership team understand that these young professionals have clear expectations as they search for the right employers.

As the director stated, “Our training program is second to none, and I think it helps make our firm an attractive option for millennials and recent college grads. Young, passionate jobseekers want to know they can grow and develop while doing meaningful work. When they consider our progressive training program and our commitment to ongoing education, it’s clear that Iconic Promotions is an ideal destination.”

Young people also want to make a positive impact on the world through their professional pursuits. Nadia believes Iconic Promotions checks that box as well. “Whether it’s through our dynamic promotions or our dedication to supporting the community, we make a real difference in people’s lives every single day,” she added. “Talented young professionals will find that our company allows them to leave positive impressions on the world.”
