Just wrapped up my first experience as a hiring manager, and it gave me a new perspective on what makes a strong team dynamic. Beyond resumes and interviews, it was about identifying someone who would thrive in our culture and bring something new to the table. Grateful to be part of shaping the future of our team and learning through the process.

I’ve only been involved in hiring for a little over a month now and it absolutely is a whole new perspective! Learning a ton through the process and really excited to carry on with it. Been a lot of fun honestly to have conversations with candidates and see if we met each others needs!

i love this!

It's as much of an art as a science, I think. I'm also pretty new to it, and I feel like I've learned something new every single day. It's interesting how someone can seem like the perfect fit on paper, but it's a whole different dynamic when it comes to personalities and matching the team's vibe.

I've been learning a ton too

I agree with you, finding the right person can be challenging but is definitely rewarding once it happens. I think the biggest piece of the puzzle is getting someone who fits in well with the team already in place, but who also can help to take the team to the next level. When you find that perfect combination, you've struck gold.

super rewarding

You raise a pretty good point, so much of the hiring process is about bring someone into a team. And the chemistry, while it sounds like a vague concept to some ears, really does matter a lot. Someone with skills to spare who wouldn't, as you say, thrive in the culture, would just be a bad choice.

exactly :)

After a long interview process, I had to decline an offer from Amazon. I was really excited, but they wanted to start me as an L4. I already have offers on the table $15,000 more then the possible top compensation an L4 can get.

Makes me sad. Has anyone else been real excited about a possible job and have been low balled?

RX Consultants (in the US) how difficult is your day to day? Does the legal aspect show serious difficulty especially as you gain seniority (and thus more responsibility/strategy)....and does it stay interesting? Especially those of you who came from an accounting background versus finance (or if you know of colleagues who came from accting background and their story).
Also welcoming horror stories/your worst day as an RX consultant, since they can be hilarious and somewhat telling of the job.
