Ep 32: Three C's of Hiring -- Mini Series || COMPETENCE (Part 1)

30min | 01/09/2025

Description

After exploring Character and Chemistry, we've reached the final 'C' of hiring: Competence. While it might seem like the most straightforward of the three to evaluate, Scott and Caitlin reveal why traditional interview approaches often lead to costly hiring mistakes.

Rather than relying on standard behavioral questions or "going with your gut," they demonstrate how to turn interviews into genuine conversations that uncover true capabilities. And if you think reference checks are just a formality, their insights about maximizing these conversations might surprise you.

From entry-level positions to executive roles, Scott and Caitlin provide a practical framework for evaluating competence that can be adapted to any organization's size and budget. These strategies will transform your approach to assessing candidates' real abilities.
