Trusted by founders and fast-growing teams.
Finding a Social Media Manager With Health & Wellness Experience
While the role itself was clearly defined, HigherDOSE needed someone who already understood the health, wellness, and beauty ecosystem.
Candidates outside this vertical would have struggled to produce authentic content and connect with the brand’s audience.
Additionally, the candidate needed to bring a mix of creative and operational skills, including:
- Social media content creation
- Community engagement
- Content calendar planning
- On-camera comfort and brand representation
The search also followed previous hiring attempts, increasing the pressure to find the right long-term fit.
Prioritizing Content Creators With Platform Fluency
Constant Hire focused on candidates with proven experience managing social media for health, wellness, or beauty brands.
Candidates were evaluated based on:
- Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube management experience
- Ability to produce engaging social content
- Comfort appearing on camera
- Community engagement strategy
- Content planning and calendar management
During the process, one candidate initially received mixed feedback from leadership but advanced through the interview process after the broader team responded positively and the candidate delivered a strong creative test.
This ultimately led to the successful hire.
PROCESS
- 29 candidates interviewed
- 16 candidates submitted to the client
- 4 interview rounds
- Managed 4 stakeholders
- ~2 week interview window

The search required evaluating a high volume of candidates to find someone who could combine platform expertise with cultural alignment.
