They weren’t. The less qualified a candidate, the more they tend to do a “land grab” with their resume. That is, everything they touched turned to gold and they were the only one who could get anything done at their company. Well, it can be hard to refute that or even question it if you have not sat in or near their seat. Most recruiters have little or no functional or management experience. They can ask simple questions such as, “what were you responsible for in project xyz?”, but what would they be able to ask as a follow-up? Being responsible for a large project at a startup is completely different than the same responsibility at a large public company. Presenting to the board can be straight-forward or it can be a massive undertaking (okay, it’s usually a massive undertaking). The point is, if you have not been there you wouldn’t know, and therefore your “BS meter” will be very weak. They have not been there. We have. This consistently leads to higher quality recruiting choices. That’s value. That’s ProfessionalSourcing. We are executives - hiring for you!
