Marketing recruitment

Marketing hires change how your buyers find you and what they think when they do. Talent Strand fills marketing roles for U.S. employers, from first marketing coordinator to chief marketing officer.

Marketing roles reward evidence. Employers ask to see a portfolio of campaigns, channel attribution reports, and revenue influence. A digital media buyer who can explain how spend moved pipeline gets calls. A content lead with a published body of work and subject matter fluency stands out. Product marketers who have launched features and measured adoption are scarce in several regions.

Many job posts ask for a marketer who writes copy, builds funnels, manages agencies, runs analytics, and handles social. That describes five roles, and it scares off strong applicants. Hiring managers often wait for a candidate who has done the exact same job at a direct competitor, which shrinks the pool. A better move is to separate must have channel skills from nice to have industry background.

How candidates are assessed

We look at the work itself before we look at years of experience. A paid media candidate sends campaign screenshots, spend levels, return on ad spend, and channel mix. A content candidate sends a portfolio with samples tied to business goals. For product marketing, we ask for launch plans, positioning docs, and sales enablement materials they wrote. We then run a structured interview that covers how they set budgets, test creative, read analytics, and communicate with sales or finance. Employers get a short written summary of what the candidate can do on day one.

Questions employers ask

What marketing roles do you fill?

We fill marketing roles across the U.S., from entry-level coordinators to chief marketing officers. Common searches include digital media specialists, paid media buyers, content marketing managers, product marketing managers, and brand managers. You tell us the channel mix and we find the person.

Which industries do you cover?

We work with employers in every state and across sectors. We place marketers in healthcare, software, manufacturing, retail, financial services, and consumer goods. If your company has a payroll in the U.S., we can help.

How do you assess a marketing candidate's portfolio?

We ask for work samples tied to measurable results. For paid media, we want campaign data, spend, return on ad spend, and screenshots. For content and product marketing, we want launch plans, sales materials, and published pieces. We review the work before any interview.

What if we need someone who can handle both strategy and hands-on execution?

We screen for both by asking candidates to walk through a campaign from goal setting to reporting. We check if they can write a brief and also pull a performance report. That way you get a marketer who can lead and do the work.
