The most important part of "fit" when hiring.
We spend a lot of time interviewing for skills. And some time interviewing for values. But what we absolutely need to spend more time on is pace. When we place candidates or fractional HR execs, pace is at the top of our list for calculating fit. Why? In over 15 years of this work, I’ve never had anyone tell me that they moved like a snail. Everyone is typically certain they are “so incredibly busy”. I’m not saying here that fast is always better. In fact, in some institutions thinking and moving in years not weeks is important. (Good spot for a tortoise and the hare joke here right?) It’s the general alignment on pace that is so critical. So, how do we check for pace?
