From application to impact: How Arsenal’s hiring process drives brand dominance
How does a creative agency consistently deliver exceptional work for top brands? For Arsenal Content Marketing, the answer lies in their unique approach to talent acquisition.
Arsenal’s approach to hiring is based on the belief that a strong team is composed of individuals who possess the necessary skills and share a common vision and set of values. This focus on technical expertise and cultural fit has been instrumental in the agency’s success — what was once a small team of three has grown ten times its original size in just five years.
Despite their diverse backgrounds and experiences, the team shares a common vision and a strong sense of collaboration. This unique blend of skills and personalities, coupled with a strong emphasis on teamwork, creativity, and a passion for storytelling, has been instrumental in Arsenal’s success.
A Cultural Fit Beyond the Surface
Arsenal prioritizes a strong cultural fit, seeking individuals who align with the company’s values and work ethic. Beyond technical skills, candidates are assessed on their ability to:
- Integrate Seamlessly: Fit harmoniously into the existing culture and work style, often determined by interactions with the team during the in-personal interview.
- Communicate Effectively: Articulate ideas clearly and actively listen to others.
- Take Initiative: Proactively identify opportunities and drive projects forward.
- Collaborate Effectively: Work harmoniously with diverse teams to achieve shared goals
A Personal Touch: The In-Person Interview
To further assess a candidate’s cultural fit, Arsenal conducts in-person interviews. These sessions allow the team to evaluate not only their technical skills but also their personality, communication style, and overall demeanor. This approach ensures that new hires align with the company’s values and contribute positively to the team’s dynamics.
By focusing on these key areas, Arsenal has built a high-performing team that consistently delivers exceptional work for some of the biggest brands in the Philippines
The Arsenal team members aren’t just colleagues; they’re a community. Strong bonds formed within the workplace often extend beyond office hours, fostering lasting friendships and a supportive network.
