Understand that cultural fit is as important as technical ability.
Represent your organization professionally throughout every candidate interaction.

Communication Beyond Words

One of the advantages of recruiting in Houston—one of the most diverse cities in the world—is the opportunity to interview professionals from every corner of the globe.

On any given day, I may interview a polymer chemist from South Korea, a manufacturing engineer from Nigeria, an electrical engineer from Eastern Europe, a materials scientist from India, a project engineer from Argentina, and a design engineer from China.After decades of recruiting technical professionals from around the world, I've learned that communication is about much more than accent.

As I often tell clients and candidates:

"I may have a Southeast Texas drawl, but I have international ears."

The best ideas, strongest technical expertise, and highest-performing professionals don't all sound alike. My responsibility is to understand the person behind the accent, evaluate their technical expertise, communication effectiveness, and interpersonal skills, and determine how successfully they can communicate within a client's organization.

Exceptional talent deserves to be understood—not overlooked.
