Fixing hiring mistakes - Deepstash

Fixing hiring mistakes

  • Know that while you're going to hate firing someone, you'll feel way better after the fact.
  • Realise that the great people on your team will be happy that you've done it as they knew the person wasn't working out. But watch how you fire people, as others will watch how you deal with people.
  • Realise that you're often doing the person a favour as you're releasing them from a role where they won't get promoted or valued.

Be sure to value the people on your team as they are exceptional.
