✅ Key Takeaways:
Time is the Ultimate Resource: In the political and legislative arena, time—not money—is the most valuable resource, driving the need for rapid, high-quality hiring.
Build the Army Early: You must build your network and vet talent long before a job opens. The best talent is always privately looking or currently employed, and they trust a proven recruiter's judgment.
Headhunter vs. Job Board: Active recruitment beats passive job boards. Headhunters provide speed, discretion, pre-vetted talent, and a higher chance of placement (a 20% shot versus less than 1% on a job board).
Retention is Key: The best way to retain talent is to pay them what they're worth and maintain a good company culture. Hiring below market rate leads to quick turnover, which costs more in the long run.
Reputation Over Resume: In politics, your reputation and attitude are your main capital. Dustin advises taking any entry-level campaign job and performing well, as that work ethic will always trump a great resume.
