  • Avoiding Costly Hiring Mistakes with Sean Vassilaros Founder at KANNY
    Jul 25 2024
    We discuss the importance of character in the hiring process, exploring the challenges of assessing character and the impact of hiring the wrong person. We highlight the role of references, the need for candid peer reviews, and the significance of character in building successful teams while avoiding costly hiring mistakes. In this episode, we look at character, hiring process, challenges, wrong hire, references, peer reviews, successful teams, hiring mistakes, transparency. Discover how character assessments and transparency can revolutionize hiring, leading to better decision-making and alignment between candidates and employers. Key Takeaways Character is a crucial factor in the hiring process, significantly impacting team dynamics and performance. Assessing a candidate's character is challenging, as the entire hiring process is curated by the candidate, making it difficult to get authentic information. References are often not reliable indicators of character, as candidates typically provide references who will speak positively about them. Candid peer reviews can provide valuable insights into a candidate's character, as peers have firsthand experience working with them. Hiring the wrong person can have significant financial and operational consequences, including lost clients, damaged team morale, and wasted resources. Integrating character assessments into the hiring process can provide valuable information for employers and candidates, leading to better hiring decisions and long-term success.

    Gage might be one of the most interesting platforms we've dug into this year. Communication, engagement, and accountability to the fullest. Beyond that, Justin Henshaw the Founder and CEO has a story worth the listen. September 11th, 2001 his world changed as he witnessed firsthand the fall of the World Trade Center. Inspired by the events of that day, he decided to put his ambitions on hold and serve his country in the United States Marine Corps. Justin served 6 years in the Marine Corps Infantry and participated in several combat tours including both Iraq and Afghanistan where he was decorated for Valor.

Gage aims to provide meaning and purpose to shift and hourly workers, addressing an underserved workforce segment.
