What If You Could Have Seen That Bad Hire Coming?

You may salvage the situation by assigning the person to a particularly adept manager. Maybe you’ll have to bite the bullet and let him go. Either way, it’s going to cost you.

Hiring is highly subjective to begin with. It’s easy to miss things you probably should understand a little better.

• Can your candidate strike an intelligent balance between getting enough detailed analysis and getting the report out the door? Or is he someone who likes getting lost down a rabbit hole of data?
• Will she earn the independence and autonomy you are eager to give? Or will you have to keep her on a tighter leash than you’d like?
• Is he creative in following a hunch to solve a particular problem while understanding the importance of a logical approach under different circumstances?
