Top Five Things to Look for When Hiring an ‘Industry Professional’

When you want something done right, hire a professional. They know what they’re doing and have the experience to back it up. You don’t want to hire an amateur when it comes to having installations done! Here are some things you should keep in mind when hiring an ‘industry professional.’

1. Experience and expertise
Experience and expertise are both important when it comes to hiring a professional, but they each have their own particular advantages. Experience shows that the person has been in the field long enough to know what they’re doing, whereas expertise indicates that they have a high level of knowledge in said field.

2. The team
The next thing to look for is their team. Who are they working with, and what do they do? Do they have an expert in each area of the business, or are there more generalists who can handle multiple tasks? How long have they been working together? What is their experience level?

You want to see a group of people that have worked together for some time and have built up trust so that everyone knows what’s expected from them and is able to work well together. If you’re looking for someone with highly specialized skills to complete your project, make sure those specialists are part of the team.

3. Portfolio of past work done
● Look at their website. Does it look professional?
● This is important for several reasons: you want to see how they typically handle projects similar to yours
● It should show you a wide range of work, including previous installations and past projects of the type of work you want to be done.
● If possible, look at their social media accounts as well. This will give you an idea of how much experience and knowledge your potential company has in the industry.

4. Top-quality products used
When it comes to the products a company uses, you want to make sure they’re using only the best. In the end, You want your customers to be happy with the products they buy from you. If they’re not satisfied, then they won’t come back—or they’ll tell their friends and family about how bad your company is.

5. Communication between the company and yourself
When hiring an ‘industry professional’, communication between the company and yourself is key. You should be able to communicate with the company easily—you should be able to get in touch with someone at any time. The company should also be easy to contact. If a problem arises and you need help from one of their representatives, it shouldn’t take more than a few hours for them to get back to you, or less, but keep in mind sometimes people do get busy!

The company should also not make you feel like you are bothering them by contacting them in case of an emergency or because there was some discrepancy with your installation (and this includes refunds).

When you want something done right, hire a professional!
Hire someone knowledgeable about their industry so they know what questions to ask and how to do things properly (and avoid costly mistakes). It’s important that you feel like you can communicate clearly with them, and they can give you a clear understanding of the work that needs to be completed.
