I have been both a unicorn, AND the world’s worst employee…
I moved jobs a lot and was even fired!
It’s insane how bad you have to be to get fired.
I would argue most people don’t even get fired when they are unable to do the job they are paid for.
Just look at the public sector 😂😂😂
So it’s more likely they have left bad jobs willingly.
Who’s the last one to leave when a business culture is a complete 💩 show?
The coasters, the unambitious, the lazy ones.
Good people make the hard choices:
So the best people are the first to jump ship when conditions aren’t right.
The ambitious, the driven, the intelligent ones.
When my bosses allow me more freedom, to action my ideas I was the hardest workers, I would work late without thinking about it, or asking for more. I would take initiative on things, and made them a lot of money.
But If im in a dead end job,
If the job is below my skill level,
if I have no control or agency over my projects…
I get bored very quickly,
lose my energy, and the job seems pointless,
so I don’t even try.
So they could be a deadbeat,
but it’s more likely they are ambitious and intelligent,
in jobs which don’t challenge or inspire them.
Ask them why!
But there’s only one real way to find out.
Run a small test and see if they jump on it lol
I have a guide on how to find and hire the dream team, and how to run low risk tests with them, can send a link if you want?
