Exceeding CVB & DMO Demands

Better Partnerships Start
with the Right People

DMOs compete for visitors, meetings, events, and investment. Destination marketing recruiters help them reach people who can build partnerships, solve problems, and keep growth moving. The work calls for urgency, judgment, and follow-through.

Talent Engagement Partners knows that environment from the inside. Andy Conklin led sales, marketing, and client services at Visit Cincy. He understands what destination teams are expected to deliver.

Search Grounded in Destination Experience

We Find People Who Turn Goals into Stronger Regional Results

Talent Engagement Partners uses current recruiting technology and applicant tracking systems to identify qualified professionals, then personally prepares them to consider opportunities they may not have pursued on their own. Our destination marketing recruiters proactively reach talent from competing markets, hospitality organizations, and related industries, including former employees and experienced professionals ready to return to the workforce. We present an honest, mutually beneficial view of the employer, position, hospitality industry, and local community so candidates understand both the opportunity and the expectations.

Prepared for Better Decisions

Clear Context Helps Both Sides Move with Confidence

Candidates may complete a confidential Career Readiness Assessment before deciding whether a change supports their professional and personal goals. They receive relevant guidance and realistic recommendations while employers meet people who understand the position, organization and community.
