Once again, contractors are falling into the same pattern.
I keep seeing posts on Instagram that say: “Must have 3–5 years experience.”What do you guys think about this?
Here’s my take:
It’s because most people want someone they can toss straight into the field.
No training. No culture building. Just go-go-go.
But that’s how we end up with more bad hires than good ones.
Here’s the truth:
Hiring talent doesn’t fix broken systems. If you don’t know what problem you’re solving — even the “perfect” hire won’t help.
So I made this visual graphic to help.
This is how I think through hiring when I know I’m ready to grow.
What are your thoughts?
