One of the most common mistakes of managers when hiring - it made our Top 10 list! - is being swayed by their directs into hiring someone that they weren't that impressed by. They always regret, they often write to us. Here's how to not fall prey to one of the most common hiring mistakes.
You have an opening. The candidate has made it through the resume review, an HR screening and a further phone screen by one of your trusted directs. You interview a candidate, along with some of your directs doing the same.

The answer is to NOT hire. Here's why, and how to avoid this outcome.
