Topics Covered in this Episode:

• Finding the right job boards and creating a clearly defined job role to find remote contractors who can handle specific tasks or projects. 
• How to test the waters and assess their performance before making a long-term commitment.
• What you need to know about hiring based on skills and performance (instead of hiring someone who can do the job, focus on hiring someone who is already doing the job or possesses the necessary skills using related tests or assignments.)
• How you can develop a hiring funnel that filters out candidates so you can interview the very best ones. (well-crafted job description to attract the right candidates, pre-qualifying questions, personality profiles, and tests to assess skills and fit with the company culture)
• Why you need to verify substance and gather data (avoid making hiring decisions based solely on instincts or charm. Gather data by assessing applicants' performance, consistency, and work history. Check their claims and pay attention to inconsistencies that raise red flags.)
