Here's a mindset shift that's going to mess with you a little - when an A-player walks into an interview with you, they're not just hoping you pick them. They're sizing you up.
Top talent has options, and they're sitting across from you quietly deciding whether you're the kind of leader they want to follow, whether your business is the kind of place they want to spend their best years, and whether you actually have your stuff together or you're winging it.
In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what A-players are actually looking for when they interview you - the questions they ask that most founders aren't prepared for, the things they're quietly judging about your leadership in the first five minutes, the culture signals that make them lean in, and the stuff that quietly kills the offer before you even make it.
Here's the question I want you to sit with before your next interview: would an A-player choose me?
If you're not sure, this episode is for you. Let's audit your process through their eyes.
