Hiring out of desperation nearly burned me, so I rebuilt our entire process from the ground up. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on exactly how we hire at the agency now: the non-negotiables I screen for, why wedding industry experience can matter more than marketing chops (and when it's the reverse), and the strategy prompt that instantly separates thoughtful applicants from the ChatGPT copy-pasters. I'm also sharing the personality test that's saved us from near-miss hires, why I finally started calling references (four years late), our 60-day onboarding process, and the new step I'm adding: getting my veteran team members' blessing before anyone gets an offer. Whether you're building a remote team or just tired of babysitting employees, this one's for you.
