Shared travel also unites the firm’s people, and Jennifer is always seeking new places for them to explore. “We attend industry conferences in far-flung locations as well as retreats hosted by luxurious resorts,” she added. “It’s important to allow our people to decompress.

Jennifer asks pointed questions to gauge a candidate’s potential fit. As she said, “I like to ask if there was a time when their beliefs clashed with another team members’ and how they overcame their differences. The response to that question will tell me a lot about whether the person would thrive in our supportive atmosphere.”

The director also recommends getting at least one personal reference along with professional references. As she explained, “If you want to get a real sense of a person’s attitude and work style, you should go beyond previous employers. Asking someone’s friend or neighbor if they’re reliable or motivated to work in your industry is helpful.
