How do you tell during the interview process if someone is a good fit?
When you realize a new hire is not a good fit, or you aren't fitting with your new job, you can often go back and pick out the red flags from the interview process.
It could be that the culture of the organization just does not match their personality. It could be that the candidate was just good at BS-ing their answers. It could be that the interviewer’s questions did not properly consider what purpose that open role is meant to serve.
That’s why the interviewer not only has to ask the right questions, but set the right priorities in the interview process. In order to find the right fit, they have to understand what “fit” means for their organization.
How do you do that? And what are those priorities?
I put this question to my guests on this edition of Quick Hits, all of whom have extensive experience with the hiring process. They are: Michael Vincent, co-host of What the Truck podcast; Gary Fredericks, CEO of On Point Partners; and Terri Hill, co-creator of the Emerging Entrepreneurs Academy. It was a joy and a pleasure to get some insight into their thinking. I hope you find it engaging and helpful.
What red flags have you missed during an interview, from either side of the table?
