ReSource Pro Congrats, Dan Epstein. It's an impressive journey you and your team are on. It feels like yesterday that we were both sitting at a Peak Performance conference networking and not 20 or so years ago. ReSource Pro has once again been named to the Inc. 5000 list, an annual ranking of the fastest-growing privately held companies in America. #backoffice #businessmanagement

Excited for this hire is an understatement! We set out for this role a few months ago and spent a lot of time carving out the need, being intentional about the right fit, and making sure our job description was transparent and accurate. We posted the job on LinkedIn and our website. We received 61 applicants in total who met the preliminary qualifications. Each applicant was sent a link to the Culture Index survey. Out of those 61, 5 applicants made it to the first round of interviews based on their CI results. This isn’t because we didn’t want to talk to everyone, but because we have a specific process that we use for hiring people. Why get to know people who aren’t the right fit for a role and then try to justify continuing the interview process when they aren’t the right fit? I knew when I met Lauryn Roll (Patton) that she was the one, but tried to keep an open mind. We interviewed all 5 candidates two additional times. Gave them some scenarios to work through and let them walk us through their process. It was awesome to see them all do it! But when Lauryn showed up with a presentation that was not only a great visual but matched our brand, I KNEW we had to hire her. We let her and 1 other candidate interview with the team members that would report to them. Culture fit is crucial to our success. Everyone that interviewed with Lauryn felt the same way we did. And Lauryn felt the same way about us. I’m so excited she is on our team and cannot wait to see what she brings to the table in action. This is gonna be fun! Oh, and David Foster created a video presentation that we sent out with the email to the other 4 candidates that we did not hire. They all spoke about how much they appreciated not only getting a rejection email, but a video to go along with it made them feel seen. The hiring process can be daunting and extensive, but if you remain true to your core values and are intentional with every aspect, it will pay off every time.
