By: Kings Collective “When I hire people, I’m not looking for anyone whose primary concern is their paycheck,” Alexa said. “I understand that compensation is important, of course, but I want professionals who are excited and motivated by business, and by engaging with others. This is really what we’re about.” To ensure that all new team members have what they need to excel at the firm, Alexa and her colleagues have implemented a progressive training and mentorship program. This, in addition to a supportive and upbeat culture consistently positions individuals for long-term career success. “Everyone who joins our team has the opportunity to learn all there is to know. In turn, they drive their own advancement. Promotions are always given based on merit,” she confirmed. Kings Collective’s Leader on Assessing Soft Skills During the Hiring Process “I don’t intend to minimize the importance of technical skills,” Alexa continued. “However, I think that interviewing for soft skills is even more important. Anyone can learn the practical stuff, but being able to empathize and collaborate are not so easily acquired. Nonetheless, they are imperative to professional success at Kings Collective.” Alexa explained that she looks for two primary qualities during interviews: self-awareness and instinct. She needs to know that candidates are capable of connecting their actions to outcomes, and that they can easily engage appropriately with others. She asks specific questions to assess the presence of these skills. First, Alexa inquires about past experiences working with groups. Responses that refer negatively to group work or individuals who claimed to have carried the weight of their colleagues in previous roles send immediate red flags. Even if these statements are true, promising candidates will likely answer the question with tact by identifying the leadership opportunities that presented themselves in these situations. Then, Alexa asks candidates to describe situations in which they had to ask for help. “Interviewees that can’t or won’t come up with responses to this question are usually trying to appear perfect, as though they never need help,” she indicated. “Instead, someone who acknowledges a past mistake, and how he or she learned from it, is someone who demonstrates the skills I want on my team. I have no interest in perfection. Authenticity and humility are much more meaningful.” About Kings Collective, Inc.
