It’s more than just capability
Hiring is never straightforward. Time is spent fine-tuning job descriptions and ironing out contractual details. The focus is usually on qualifications—degrees, years of experience, technical skills. But what’s often missing from the equation is clarity: how well someone knows themselves, how they make decisions, how grounded they are in their values. Someone may tick every…

Not because people are being dishonest.But because they’re scared they’ll be misunderstood. They’re asking questions like: “Does this sound too much like AI?”“What if I get flagged even though I wrote it?” They’re…
