Finding the best candidate

You want to find the candidate that will make your client(s) impressed with your ability to bring forth the best talent available. That's what you do.
The better the candidate is, the better you look. I get it. That's pretty much the philosophy in my career. You shine I shine. My main role is to make my team effective and well delegated. When i am searching for candidates for assignments, these are the things that matter most to me.

Hands-On Designer

When it comes to design and direction, I believe being a hands-on person is advantageous. From sketching, to composition, to oversight and production.

Hands-on Coder/Developer

Being able to directly code is important for customization and data integration. There are alot of WYSIWYG applications, but the power is being able to write code if needed.

Visionary Leader

Success comes from great teamwork and mentoring leadership. The most important thing in this regard is mutual respect and a high standard of what you create.
