The Hidden Secret of Exceptional Hiring
Imagine receiving an urgent call from your boss while preparing for a critical presentation. When you protest about interviewing candidates, they respond: "There is nothing more important to your success than hiring great people! Nothing." This wisdom became the foundation of Lou Adler's revolutionary approach to hiring. The traditional hiring process is fundamentally flawed - we hire people based on their ability to get a job rather than their ability to do the job. Studies show interviewers typically form opinions within the first 90 seconds of meeting candidates, with 75% of decisions influenced by these initial impressions. The remainder becomes an exercise in confirmation bias, seeking information that validates our gut feelings rather than objectively assessing capability. This flawed approach leads to two critical errors: hiring articulate candidates who interview well but deliver mediocre results, and rejecting candidates who interview poorly but would excel in the actual role. The correlation between interviewing skills and job competency is virtually non-existent, with studies showing less than a 0.2 correlation coefficient. Top performers in technical fields often struggle with self-promotion, while natural communicators may lack technical depth. The solution? Wait at least 30 minutes before making any decision about a candidate - a simple rule that can reduce snap judgments by 40%.
