Explanation of "Hangs With" datafield

Wanting talent with a specific aesthetic, recruiters will often describe design positions as MUST HANG WITH... As such, we are encouraging designers to create a HANGS WITH keyword bank at the end of their online profiles.

If for example, you are a designer who has a traditional, "preppy" style. You would list Polo Ralph Lauren, Vineyard Vines, J Crew and Lacoste in your HANGS WITH keyword bank. Designers who work in the surf/skate markets could list companies like Quiksilver, Volcom, Billabong and Vans in their HANGS WITH keyword bank.

This way, when a recruiter searches the StyleCareers.com database for job seekers who HANG WITH a certain brand, your profile will come up. The more companies/brands you list, the more likely you are to be found by recruiters.
