Hiring a new team member can be a daunting task, but what if I told you there's a more effective way to find your perfect fit? Forget about the traditional interview process and trial days that often end with a bland, cookie-cutter assessment. My approach is built on the idea that a candidate's true potential lies in how they interact with our team, rather than just checking off boxes on a resume. I've refined my trial day routine over time to focus on what really matters: personality alignment, teamwork dynamics, and a genuine understanding of our team's culture. From the initial company tour to the team lunch and task assessment, every step is designed to reveal the candidate's true character and work style. And it's not just about getting a sense of their skills – it's about whether they'll thrive alongside us. So, if you're ready to take a more nuanced approach to hiring, read on to learn my secrets for finding your ideal team member.
