?? Hiring Human Beings, Not Services ??

?? Hiring Human Beings, Not Services ??

When we delve deep into a company's heart, what truly drives its pulse? Is it the thirst for money, power, or competition? Or is it trust, purpose, and growth? These core values often shape the talents we look to attract and hire.

In a world where hiring services claim to cherry-pick "the best" for you, the real question arises: do they truly understand what "best" means to you? Do they resonate with your values?

For me, hiring isn’t about filling a seat. It's about discovering a collaborative partner. I’m not just hiring an employee; I'm connecting with a human being. I am curious about the dreams and aspirations of those who seek to join our team. What ignites their passion? What are their goals?

A recent interaction left a deep impression on me. One applicant expressed a desire to write a book within the next five years. Instead of simply nodding, I challenged her. Why not complete it before our next meeting? The result? An awe-inspiring manuscript, a testament to the magic that happens when you believe in people's potential.

For hiring managers looking to improve their approach, here are some practical strategies:

1. Deep Dive Conversations: Move away from standard interview questions and delve into an applicant's passions. Learn about their personal dreams, their families, and their long-term goals.

2. Reflective Moments: After each interview, take a moment to reflect. Ask yourself, "Did I see this person as a human being or just a resume?"

3. Do your own hiring instead of getting other companies to do it. The people who already work at the company know it the best.

When our hiring process starts with the mindset of embracing human beings, magic truly unfolds.
