Navigating hiring decisions: is your ‘perfect’ candidate the right choice?

You’ve shortlisted a candidate who, on paper, appears to be the perfect fit for the job: exceptional qualifications, years of great experience, and an impressive skill set. However, once in the role, your new hire fails to align with your company culture, struggles to adapt to team dynamics, or under-performs, ultimately revealing that your initial assessment missed some crucial factors.
