Have you ever hired someone, and then discovered that their skill level is way below what you imagined?

 

This happens… a lot.

 

The culprit is not effectively reviewing their capability do to the job.

 

To do this effectively, you’ll need to:

 

Get really clear the key skills and experience they need to bring to the team

 

Set the objective of only hiring someone when you are confident that they have these skills

 

Work out what activities are needed to make you feel confident

 

For a sales team member, this might mean writing emails, and having mocked sales calls.

 

For an engineer, this might mean collaboratively working on real coding challenges, and a mini project where they take a new feature from start to finish.

 

We dig deeper into the stress and pain caused by making the wrong hire — and how to avoid this — on today’s episode of De-stress our Business.
