Find your perfect talent match 

No one knows your company and its needs better than you do, so it can be difficult to trust a third party to find the right talent for you. Traditional recruiting agencies simply match resumes with job descriptions, losing sight of the people behind the paper. Soundings understands this, which is why we’re not your average recruiting team. We take special care to ensure that matches are made based on human qualities that create meaningful connections. This is where the real magic happens.  

 
 

Soundings uniquely leads with a people-first ethos to connect organizations like yours with on-demand experts in the meeting, event, hospitality, and travel industries. We get to know your needs and desires first, then we carefully vet the talent in our network to check all your boxes. 

Our network of 1400+ hand-picked professionals are up-and-comers, innovators, and experts with over 50 diversified specialties. We live and breathe the talent market and understand the skills needed in the changing work landscape. Therefore, we thoughtfully match talent with companies based on appropriate expertise, the right culture fit, and soft skills to drive results and innovation.  

Soundings believes the culture fit is as important as the skill sets required. That’s why we go below the surface and beyond just fitting a job description. We use the Gallup CliftonStrengths Assessment to get to know talent personally. This allows us to understand each person holistically–not just their previous job experience. We combine individuals’ strengths, expertise, work style, personality, and interests to thoughtfully place them in positions where they’ll thrive.  

Proactively Recruit with Soundings 

Soundings is a trusted name in the marketplace because of our deep industry knowledge and caliber of talent. Just as companies look to us for needed talent, our talent trusts us to help them make career decisions. Most talent is overwhelmed and unsure of where to look for their next role. We help them make informed decisions about the best opportunities for them and thereby advocate on your behalf for them to join your team. 

You can increase work efficiency and speed of team integration when you staff our talent because they are already experts in what they do; the learning curve is acute, so integration is swift. When you recruit with Soundings, you also gain access to the best talent on the market whenever you need it. You can proactively recruit with us because our talent community is always growing–we give you needed talent as we get it in our network.  

Whether you prefer to keep hiring talent internally or to entrust a recruiting team, Soundings complements the HR process by sourcing the best choices from our talent community for you to select from. We cut out irrelevant candidates by only choosing from our talent pool of meeting and event professionals with true industry experience. We then ensure talent is compliant with the latest rules and regulations in the events industry labor force, so you don’t have to. Once you’ve connected with your chosen talent, we continue to support you by providing the talent with continued education and opportunities to upskill as the industry evolves. As your overall needs scale, we’ll continue to adapt with you. Leverage our brand to augment yours today!
