One question I wish more hiring managers would ask during interviews:
“What support do you need to be successful?”
Most interviews focus on:
- Skills
- Experience
- Qualifications
- Technical knowledge
All important, but great hiring isn’t just about assessing capability.
It’s about understanding what enables someone to perform at their best.
The highest-performing people I’ve worked with weren’t successful because they knew everything.
They were successful because they had the right environment around them.
The right leadership.
The right expectations.
The right support.
Recruitment shouldn’t only be about finding the right person.
It should also be about creating the conditions for success.
