• Real passion is what truly makes competent employees stand out!

• Go beyond the resume, and let the candidate tell their story

Curiosity• In the information

age, it’s not hard to learn about a company online!

• Somebody’s who hiring can quickly find out how much research somebody’s done about the company by asking specific questions

Fearlessness• The Japanese have a

concept, “kaizen”, meaning continuous improvement!

• This is based around a drive to succeed, not just at work, but also with their personal lives and hobbies!

• This is an element of personal “fearlessness”, not being afraid to reach higher

Adaptability

• A prospect needs to be able to quickly absorb new learning and integrate that learning into existing plans and practices

• As technology rapidly changes in the modern age, this is a fundamental skill set that requires a sharp-minded dot-connector to master

Fit• Employees want

their job to be emotionally and socially fulfilling!

• You need to hire talent that will be a good fit for the culture in place
