Brightest Minds: Accelerating Innovation Through Talent
Situation: Creating Brand Identity for Recruitment Agency in Hyper-Competitive Market
Brightest Minds selects and employs only the best candidates in the aerospace, offshore, and high-tech industries. These are mostly engineering personnel who are scientific, professional, highly educated, and who have a great authority in their specific field of work. Their entire aim is to accelerate innovation for customers by providing them access to the brightest engineering minds possible—hence the brand’s name.
As a recruiting agency, you know better than anyone that the recruiting industry is one that’s hyper-competitive and absolutely filled with other brands offering similar services to you. In crowded marketplaces like these, it can be pretty tough for you to set yourself apart from the competition. However, the fact that about 65% of HR professionals see that talent shortages are a major obstacle when looking to hire candidates means that the market is wide-open for business.
The recruitment industry is hyper-competitive, making differentiation challenging. Brightest Minds needed a brand identity that would set them apart from competition while communicating their unique positioning: accelerating innovation through access to brightest engineering minds.
