If it’s not a hell yes, it’s a no

We are in the process of trying to hire two new people - a salesperson and an SEO Specialist. Our hiring process has multiple steps. The first step is a 15 minute skills assessment over the phone by the hiring manager. The next step is a longer interview with the hiring manager, who may or may not ask others from the team to join in. After the first couple of interviews are conducted the top three candidates go on to interview with our founders - Erik and Kevin. The founders interview is really a chance for Erik and Kevin to see if there is a cultural fit. They look at things like personality, work ethic, and overall likeness. At this point the team has already determined they have the skills to do the job. This final interview is to determine whether the candidate is a “Hell yes!” or a no. We've learned in the past that if a candidate isn't a “Hell yes!” they should probably be a no. — Erik J. Olson is an award-winning digital marketer & entrepreneur.
