ADVICE

Interviewing and Reference Checks

  • Most people overestimate their interviewing skills.
  • Interviewees at higher levels are typically very good at interviewing, potentially masking their true fit.
  • Overvalue 'consensus hires' and undervalue candidates with strong support from some, even if others are unsure.
  • Prioritize reference checks and networking to gain deeper insights into a candidate's suitability.
