One of the top cues I look for when I’m interviewing senior #hires are unconcious #competencies. Clues for unconcious competencies are found in the subtle flow of language that someone uses to refer to their role. The absolute opposite of 'corporate-jargon' - language that 'sounds cool to some - but doesn't really mean anything' It's almost an incredible amount of work, but presented in a short phrase. This is how it sounds, and it's a dead ringer for quality. When people speak like this, you know they can do their roles so well that they aren't even aware of it. For example; -We ensure our managers standardize the transfer of skills to the lower tiers. -We build culture by promoting the right values and behaviours. -I built out the sales and marketing function by creating an annual plan. Any one of those 3 competencies would be impressive, if they can also then breakdown how they do it, that's a solid Director profile right there. Noel Burch created the Hierarchy of competence back in the 70's, see below. Level 1 - You don't really understand what you need to know, Level 2 - You recognise what you need to know but don't know how, Level 3 - You learn that new skill and execute, Level 4 - You use that skill so much that it becomes second nature. I hope this helps you spot strong senior talent. #recruitment Funds Talent

As an HR professional, I don’t mind if people do these things in interviews: - Transitioning from different industries with strong core skills - Demonstrating transferable skills across various sectors - Bringing fresh, innovative ideas from diverse experiences - Providing examples of how they’ve successfully adapted to new roles None of these will ever hamper someone’s chances with me when hiring. Instead, they reflect a broader perspective, adaptability, and a willingness to learn. These are qualities that drive innovation and growth. As the popular saying goes, “Hire for Attitude, Train for Skill.” The best companies and hiring managers tend to appreciate this approach as well. This approach of looking past the industry context and focusing on core skill requirements is the most rewarding when hiring professionals on a 𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗽/𝗴𝗶𝗴 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹. Core skills are crucial as they bring immediate value, allowing for quick integration and high performance in a short timeframe.
