Up until a few years ago, I was the primary decision-maker for our hiring process. I screened all of the applications, did all of the phone interviews, took the lead on in-person interviews, and along with Jon Lenz, I decided who to hire. Though DEI is something that gets talked about a lot these days, I will say that I only had a rudimentary understanding of what it meant. Once we committed to doing the work of DEI in an earnest, ongoing way, one of the things that stood out to me was that I could no longer be the only one responsible for the hiring process. Not because of the workload, but because it was clear (as humans are wont to do) that I gravitated toward people who looked like me, acted like me, worked like me, and had similar experiences as me. There was no way that I could, on my own, build a diverse organization. The first thing I did was to start bringing others into the process. Someone to help me screen, someone to help me do first interviews, someone else to take the lead on in-person interviews, and incorporating more perspectives into the final hiring decision. We've still got a long way to go, but it has broadened our candidate pool exponentially and has opened my eyes to the talent that has probably always been there, I just couldn't see. #hiring #diversity

I’ve been interviewing candidates over the past few weeks for the Chief of Staff role at Artie (YC S23) Here are some things I do that seem to resonate well 👉 Be ready to share real examples of what they would do in the role (we have a case study that gives a good sense of real projects they would be doing) 👉 Be open with how the company is doing and what your plans are for the next 6-12 months 👉 Being vulnerable and share what you’re worried about and uncertainties that exists 👉 Admit that I don’t know the answer to tough questions like “how do you know XYZ is the right channel to target your ICP?” but provide context on how we plan to figure it out  👉 Have an interview process fully designed so candidates know what to expect 👉 Align on comp (base + equity) expectations early so there are no surprises What are other best practices I should incorporate? #interview #hiring

This week’s featured 5-star review is a shout-out to Cheri Jackman for the way she “embodies excellence” in her interviews and candidate relationships! This candidate called out a few really key things that made a difference in their decision to accept the offer that our client made. Easy to talk to (this allows candidates to be honest & transparent as well as shake their nerves)  Informative (she KNOWS the roles and industry!)  Responds quickly (our process is built around being responsive to both clients and candidates)  Followed up to say #congrats after they got the job (it’s always the little things!) The above are really simple but we all know simple doesn’t always mean easy. When your recruiting team has too much on their plate, they can’t show up for the candidates in a way that gets a 5-star review. We have good news. We can! We can be that augmented piece of your recruiting strategy that ensures candidates become raving fans. Kudos, Cheri! #retailrecruiting  #retailjobs
