TK: Okay, well, I have everything I need, but do you have any questions for me, about
-
the company or the position? RS: Yes. Imagine you're looking back on this
-
hiring decision in a year. The person you hired has exceeded your expectations. What
-
did he or she do that impressed you most? TK: That’s a great question. I think in
-
one year the person would have come in and spent some time learning from the team and
-
people that have been here a while. Then, she or he will start making changes in an
-
informed way. In one year I want this person’s team to be a well-oiled machine. I want them
-
to be bouncing ideas off each other, coming up with new designs and making headway into
-
new markets. RS: That’s helpful. It’s good to know
-
what the expectations are. Can you tell me about the team that I would be working with?
-
TK: Sure. I believe all of them have been with the company for over five years and know
-
the ropes. I would say there’s a little bit of frustration currently because of our
-
lack of growth. This will be the third time we’ve brought in a new team leader in four
-
years. RS: Do you know what’s causing that kind
-
of rapid turn over? T: To be honest, the last three team leaders
-
have been hired from within the company. And sometimes it’s hard to think outside the
-
box when you’ve been inside the box for awhile. We’re hoping to bring in some new
-
ideas and energy and get our development team back on track.
-
RS: That makes sense. I really appreciate that you’re considering me for the position.
-
I’d love to be a part of the company achieving its goals.
-
TK: Very good. Okay. That’s great, thanks so much for coming in, Rachel. It’s great
-
to meet you. I’ll give you a call in the next three days.
-
RS: Sounds good, I look forward to it. Thanks again.
-
TK: My pleasure.
