The Dunning Kruger Effect and How to Avoid It

The Dining Kruger Effect is a cognitive bias that makes people think they are more capable than they really are. You can bypass the Dunning Kruger effect by building your job ads and your interview process or your candidate screening process around the specific skills that you need. Try to avoid generalized ads that ask candidates if they have integrity or personal motivation, strong communication skills or whatever. Instead, talk about what specific skills you need for the job opening.
