3. Hobbies/Interests
What are they passionate about?
This is the first thing I want to know when looking at a resume.
Because hobbies develop skill sets, ones that they genuinely care about.
Then I determine if those skill sets align with what the business needs.

I despise this section.
You won't ever learn any objective truth from their chosen references.
These people were strategically picked to enhance the candidate's image.
Discover the truth by making them obtain the references that you want.

6. Experience>Education
Be interested in what they have done in the REAL WORLD rather than in their academics.
Their degree might get them in the room with me, but it's their experience that persuades my decision.
I don't need to know if they can do the job in theory.

7. Read Btw the Lines
People exaggerate.
They'll exaggerate their skills to suit your requirements.
So, it's vital you learn to read between the lines both during the interview and on the résumé.
Don't get tricked.

8. Hire slow/Fire fast

To avoid being trapped with poor candidates make sure to:
1. Monitor closely for red flags
2. Always set a probation period
3. Fire swiftly if they are not the right fit.
