1. Leading by Example: At Actualize, we are really adamant about creating a good work environment for our employees, and that isn’t just a facade. Really, truly, at every level, we care about the health, wellness, and lives of our employees. That’s the reason we make work/life balance a priority. And when the leadership at your firm practices what they preach, it trickles down to mean that employees are happy and that they say great things about our company from word-of-mouth. It isn’t ever a struggle to hire people; people want to be a part of our culture.
2. Asking employees for help recruiting: Our consultants are some of the most talented individuals in the financial services sector. Odds are, they know others in the field who would make a great fit for our company.
3. Using social media: The way we use social media at our firm is a bit different than how other firms use it. We like to tell the story of our firm, what we’re up to, and where we are growing, but we also like to showcase the great things going on at the individual level. When you visit our feed, we want you to see our employees and get to know them and how they are using their passion and talent to make strides in the industry. Each of our employees is so skilled; it’s awesome to use our platform to demonstrate how lucky we are to have them.
