Episode notes
Measure Three Core Hiring Dimensions
- Evaluate candidates on three dimensions: technical competence, culture fit, and job fit.
- Use structured measures rather than relying only on resumes or interviews to assess each dimension.
Stop Hiring On Resumes Alone
- Avoid hiring decisions based solely on credentials and interviews.
- Build evaluations that reveal real performance instead of trusting surface-level signals.
Design A Realistic Role Profile
- Start recruiting by writing a clear role profile: responsibilities, skills, schedule, and working conditions.
- Limit scope to what one person can realistically handle to avoid setting the hire up for failure.
