Let's face it - it's easy to get caught up in the daily grind and forget what really matters. That's why at Ilmiö, we've got four core values that keep us grounded and guide everything we do. No, they're not just for show - we actually live by these every day. Let's break them down, shall we?
We believe mutual transparency is key for strong partnerships. We operate with honesty and openness in all our work.
No smoke and mirrors here - just clear, honest communication. Because let's be real, nobody likes being kept in the dark.
Here's what that looks like in practice:
• We encourage our partners to be upfront about salary ranges in job ads
• We give candidates real, honest feedback (even when it's not all rainbows and unicorns)
• We discuss our pricing openly in sales meetings (no hidden fees here!)
• We set realistic expectations with clients (we're good, but we're not magicians)
We never settle for less and always strive to exceed expectations. We aim to deliver the best possible service to both professionals and businesses.
We're not about settling for "good enough". We're always looking to do better, but without burning ourselves out.
Here's how:
• We're constantly tweaking our processes based on what works (and what doesn't)
• We develop new service models when we spot a gap in the market
• We invest in our team's skills (because learning never stops, right?)
We are committed to promoting equal and fair recruitment and work-life. We never act against our values.
We believe in making the working world a bit better for everyone. It's not just good karma - it's good business too.
That means:
• We promote fair and equal recruitment practices (no favorites here)
• We support work-life balance (yes, even for our own team)
• We never act against our values (even when it might be easier to look the other way)
We embrace new ideas and approaches to find the best solutions for any situation. We're ready to challenge ourselves and learn continuously.
We love a good question almost as much as we love finding the right candidate. Our curious nature means:
• We're always on the lookout for new recruitment tech and methods
• We ask the right questions to really get what our clients and candidates need
• We're open to new ideas (even if they sound a bit out there at first)
These values aren't just nice ideas - they're the blueprint for how we operate every day. Whether we're chatting with a client, interviewing a candidate, or having a team meeting, our values are always there, guiding what we do and how we do it.
As we grow and change (because that's what businesses do), these values keep us anchored. They're not just what we do - they're who we are.
