Best practices for Hiring Adobe Experience Manager Technical Expertise

For over 12 years Focus GTS has been hiring and placing the top technical professionals for Support, Enhancement and Advisory on the Adobe Experience Platform.  Over the years we have found that there are certain traits that make for the best hires, whether contract, or permanent hires.

  1. Adobe AEM client side experience –  Although this sounds like an obvious trait, it is paramount that the hire has industry context, and understands the needs of your business.  Even better, is finding individuals (or teams) that have worked across industries, and have valuable experience with the many subsystems that commonly interact with the Adobe DX cloud. Seek out candidates that have worked across industries and have a depth of relevant AEM and DX Cloud experience
  2. Growth Mindset –  Even though the Adobe Experience cloud comes packed with “out of the box” features and functions, it is commonly customized to fit your business and drive innovation.  The business and Technical problems are often ambiguous and require a growth mindset to problem solving.  Seek candidates that are in a constant growth and learning mode.
  3. Strong Network – – Even the best AEM and DX consultants out there need a strong network to be able to solve some of the most complex problems.  Seek candidates that have a wide network of professionals to help them with advisory on complex CX, Technical and Data problems.

As we enter into a new era of Ai and Data driven personalization, we see AEM projects becoming more complex, the need to ensure you are building, optimizing and managing (run and operate) your AEM instance the right way, with the right people is crucial.  It ensures you can deliver the best Customer/client experiences today, and have a scalable platform that can deliver the innovations coming from Adobe and the ecosystems to realize value from your Martech.
