true IT and management approaches to help clients achieve measurable results. MTC is a
successful IT consulting firm with 450 personnel that was initiated in May 2008 and is
based in Baltimore, Maryland. MTC is known for its excellent business approach, and it
attempts to go above and above.
To be successful in the competitive IT sector, MTC will continue to go above and
beyond in hiring well-qualified individuals to provide the best for their clients. Prior to
recruiting and the interview process, however, one must assess the company to find or
explain changes to the overall hiring system and credentialing processes, as well as the
total development cost. Effective additions to technology services, enhanced safety of
personal client data/information, and streamlining a more efficient hiring process to meet
time-sensitive deadlines are all on the horizon.

sets that make them formidable. Improving the hiring process increases the
competitive advantage of an organization by enabling it to attract the best talent,
retain high-quality talent, increase employee motivation, enhance job satisfaction, and
maintain a workforce that aligns with the strategic goals of the organization (Quirk,
2020).
C. Strategic Objectives: Strategic direction refers to the formulation of plans to
