Hiring Tips Part 1: How to Attract the Right People

25 minutes

Hiring the right people doesn’t start with the interview — it starts with the job posting.

In this first episode of our hiring series, we tackle a question we hear all the time from mentoring clients: How do I find better candidates?

Whether you’re a business owner, a team leader involved in hiring, or even someone applying for jobs, this one’s for you.

We break down a simple but effective framework to help you diagnose and improve your hiring process from the ground up. This isn’t theory or a fluffy LinkedIn post, just real talk and practical tools you can apply right away.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

A breakdown of the HITS framework and how it can instantly level up your job postings

Why generic, vague titles are quietly killing your candidate pool

What a structured, efficient hiring process looks like, and why speed and clarity matter

Why expressing your team’s true culture upfront helps attract the right fit (and repel the wrong ones)

Bonus: Talking salary in your job posting — the only 3 ways to do it, and the pros and cons of each

This week’s episode comes straight from a recurring theme we hear in our work with mentoring clients. Got a question you’d like us to address on the podcast? Let us know — remember, unstated needs lead to unmet expectations. We want to keep creating content that shows up in your life when it matters most. Drop us an email at [email protected].

Need a Coach Who Challenges You?

Even the best leaders need a coach—but too often, they’re too busy to seek one out. That’s where we come in. Think of us as your shadow advisor—a real, human sounding board who challenges your thinking, offers a fresh perspective, and isn’t afraid to be your devil’s advocate. We help uncover blind spots and push you toward better decisions, whether you’re running a small business, leading a pro sports team, or making moves in a Fortune 500 company.
