Hiring the right people

Stop hiring résumés. Start hiring for the seat.

We build the hiring structure inside your company and vet candidates with DISC, DNA 25 and the 5Cs, so the next hire is the right one.

Sound familiar?

Hiring problems are structure problems

Great interview. Wrong hire.They said the right things and could not do the job.
The same seat, filled again.Turnover keeps reopening the same role.
You depend on temp agencies.Markups climb and nobody stays.
New hires do not stick.No onboarding plan, so they drift or leave.
Managers hire people like themselves.Gut feel replaces what the seat needs.

A bad hire never shows up as a line item. It shows up in everything else.

The 5Cs

Every candidate is measured the same way, against the same seat.

Capacity

How we measure it Benchmark gaps and structured interviews

Chemistry

How we measure it DISC behaviors and motivators

Course

Quick answers

Hiring questions owners ask

How do we stop making bad hires?

Define the seat before you post, measure candidates against it, and interview the same way every time. We build that structure with your team and oversee it as fractional support.

What are the 5Cs of hiring?

Character, Competence, Capacity, Chemistry and Course. Each one answers a different question about whether a person will succeed in a specific seat on your team.

How does DISC help with hiring?

DISC shows how a candidate naturally communicates, decides and handles pressure, so you can see how they will work with your team and in the role. It informs the decision; it is never the only factor.

What is DNA 25?

A competency assessment that compares a candidate’s skills against a benchmark of what the role actually requires, so you hire for the job instead of the résumé.

Are you a headhunter?

No. We build the hiring structure inside your company and support the search, vetting and onboarding as fractional support, using your own job boards and industry affiliations.

Can you help us stop relying on temp agencies?

Yes. Maya built the in-house corporate recruiting function at a 300+ employee roofing contractor, eliminating the need for temp agencies.

What does hiring support cost?

Hiring support is scoped with you, as part of Ongoing Advisory or by placement. See pricing, or ask in a Strategy Session.

Assessments describe preferences and skills, not worth. They inform hiring decisions alongside interviews and references, never on their own.
