Is your church looking for a new staff member? If so, here is some valuable information that will help you find the right healthy, long-term fit for your church's unique DNA. ![staff-fit](https://blog.chemistrystaffing.com/hubfs/staff-fit.jpg) If so... [let's talk](http://www.chemistrystaffing.com/lets-talk/?utm_source=drip&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Is+Your+Church+Looking+for+a+New+Staff+Member+%28or+do+you+know+one+that+is%3F%29)!  (And if you know of a church that is searching for a new staff member, please forward this email to them!)   ### Better Candidates Most churches receive over one hundred resumes for their open position these days. Most of these applicants are simply not a good fit. The best candidates will always **match your church's unique DNA, theology, and culture**. We help you identify the greatest fit for your church. In fact, we match all of your candidates on over 100 data points **before** you ever start the interview process with them.   ### Healthier Fit In order to find a great, **healthy, long-term fit** for your church, you need to ask lots of questions (LOTS of questions). We are huge fans of personality and leadership assessments, but we think many **churches use assessments too late in the hiring process**. Instead, we help you find healthier fits by doing four different assessments (Theology, Culture/DNA, Personality, Skills & Abilities) on the front end of your search. That way, you'll have over **100 data points** and question answers from each candidate BEFORE you even interview them!   ### Fair Pricing Until now, only larger churches with big budgets could afford to hire outside help with their staff searches. Chemistry Staffing's approach has changed that entirely. In fact, even **very small churches can now have access to the expertise and hiring help that was once reserved for megachurches**. Our approach can actually save your church time and money by moving the hiring process forward more quickly and efficiently. All of our services and consultation are provided online via live video chat, eliminating expensive travel costs. And the time you save in meetings alone will justify the investment you'll make to use our process.   ### Let's Chat We'd love to find out more about your church and what you're looking for. [Let's schedule a free 30-minute online video consultation](http://www.chemistrystaffing.com/lets-talk/?utm_source=drip&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Is+Your+Church+Looking+for+a+New+Staff+Member+%28or+do+you+know+one+that+is%3F%29). During our time together, you can tell us more about your church, and we can let you know how we might be able to help. Ask us anything... and we'll try to get you pointed in the right direction! This is not a high-pressure sales call, we honestly want to help you and your church, however we can.   [![Searching for a new staff member?
