A Galaxy of Talent Awaits…
In a galaxy not so far away—right here in the Midwest, actually—SkyWater Search Partners is celebrating May the 4th, a day when Jedi, droids, and job seekers alike come together to harness the Force (and maybe their LinkedIn profiles).
If you're an in-house HR professional or recruiter, you're likely juggling a wide range of responsibilities—from managing internal teams and navigating compensation benchmarks to ensuring a smooth candidate experience. But sometimes, despite your best efforts, a particular role remains unfilled longer than it should. Or maybe you know that filling it requires a more targeted, strategic approach. That’s when partnering with a search firm can make all the difference.
As an executive search firm rooted in long-term partnerships and thoughtful hiring, SkyWater Search Partners understands that small actions can lead to big results. This Earth Day, we're turning our focus to sustainability, not just for the planet, but as a business mindset.
Insights from SkyWater on job growth, economic uncertainty, and hiring trends in the Upper Midwest.
At SkyWater Search, we stay ahead,
Finding top talent with skill and cred.
But news just broke—oh, what a thrill!
Recruiting is changing… and changing at will.
Preparing for a great job interview is a job in itself. You’ve done your homework on the company, perfected your resume, answered every question will clarity and confidence. By the time it’s over, you may be tempted to breathe a sigh of relief and think that the ball is now in their court. Well, it’s not. Not quite. Your interviewers invested their time and energy to meet with you. You not only owe them a thank you; you have one more opportunity to remind them of your qualifications for the job.
At SkyWater Search Partners, we believe that supporting our community is more than just an ideal; it's a principle guiding how we operate and contribute to our communities. As a leading executive search firm, our role extends beyond helping organizations find exceptional talent—we strive to be a force for positive change in the business ecosystem. One way we do this is by intentionally directing our spending to support local vendors and businesses that deserve the business.
If you’ve ever applied for a job only to hear nothing back, you’re not alone. Many candidates don’t realize that their resumes might not even reach a human recruiter. Instead, they get filtered out by Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). In some cases, these systems rely on AI-powered software that scans, sorts, and ranks applications before recruiters or hiring managers ever see them.
