One way to that has helped me to close the gap during hiring is to ask specific questions about expectations, success metrics, and what ‘good performance’ looks like in the role.

But can those answers be unreal or biased sometimes?
What can I do here?
I’ve been eager to find a job
What have I misunderstood here in this process!
Please respond to me
In the hiring process ask lots of questions. But you don’t know what you don’t know, so that’s on them for not training you or defining it.
Document all the questions you ask and detailed responses you receive. Names, dates, specific details, etc. Since it’s a compliance thing you need to CYA.
A lot of times being called out in noncompliance is a way they identify risks for not maintaining regulatory standards. You’re not really in trouble unless it results in a major loss for the company or you are a repeat offender. That’s my experience at least.
Are you saying Ive done something wrong?
Gaps happen because expectations are often not clearly defined by the actual team doing the work.To close the gap during hiring:
• Ask for real examples of mistakes and accountability
• Ask who decides success in the first 90 days
• Ask how processes are documented and trained
