Five interview tells I've learned the hard way
Shortcuts from two decades of hiring, including the one tell I still get wrong.
The five
How they talk about their last team. How they answer a question where they don't know the answer. Whether they ask a question back. What they did in the last 90 days that wasn't on their job description. Whether they say thank you.
The one I still get wrong
Energy on the call. I repeatedly mistake extroversion for competence. Some of my best hires were quiet and tired on the call because they were doing the job they already had.
