Joe Giovannoli

In this episode of the Tip of the Law podcast, host Joe Giovannoli, founder and CEO of 9Sail, speaks with Patrick Cahill and Austin Rehorn from #twiceasnice Recruiting. Patrick, the founder, and Austin, a key recruiter, discuss their insights on aligning interests with clients, simplifying job descriptions, and coordinating the hiring process for long-term success.


Key Takeaways:

1. Aligning interests with clients and employees is important for long-term success. #twiceasnice Recruiting focuses on this through their commission-free model and long placement guarantees.

2. Job descriptions need to be simplified and focus on attracting top talent through clear vision, values, and impact. Non-essential qualifications should be removed.  

3. Coordination throughout the hiring process is important to present a unified message and avoid inconsistencies. Behavioral interviewing can help verify candidates' experiences.

4. Thinking long-term about strategic hires and being willing to walk away from misaligned clients or opportunities can help firms stay competitive and true to their core values over time.
