When a hire doesn't work out, it’s easy to assume it was a candidate issue.
In reality, the bigger issue is often the hiring process.
Before a search even begins, leaders should ask themselves a few important questions:
• Was the role clearly defined?
• Was the interview process consistent?
• Was there a clear way to evaluate candidates beyond first impressions?
A strong hiring process creates clarity for the company and a better experience for candidates.
The goal isn't just to fill a seat, but to create a process that supports better hiring decisions.
