Mightybytes, a certified B Corporation, had been searching for the right candidate for their Director of Growth & Impact position for nearly two years. In 30 days on Handprint, they found their perfect match. The numbers tell the whole story.

In the ever-evolving landscape of purpose-driven businesses, finding the right talent can be a daunting task. Leaders of B Corps and other impact companies know that a perfect match between candidate and organization goes beyond skills and experience. It requires a deep alignment with values, mission, and culture to find a fit for the role and the company. However, traditional job platforms often fall short in bridging this crucial gap, leading to mismatched hires and disengaged employees.

Conscious companies are deeply committed to having a positive impact. The best of them clearly communicate that commitment through their purpose, mission, values, and vision statements - but this can be hard to do! We’re going to walk you through each and explain how they are distinct, relevant, and important, as well as how these statements relate to one another.

Hiring isn’t just about finding someone to complete tasks. You’re adding a person into the mix who has unique experiences, ideas and attributes, and each new team member will impact your company’s internal dynamics. Hiring the wrong person can kill morale and productivity, but a well thought-out hiring strategy will help you select a great candidate and avoid the risks and costs of a bad hire.
