I see this happen all the time with high performing execs looking to hire rockstars for their team. They want to hire a mini-me, someone who went to the same school or cut their teeth at the same company earlier in their career. Now, there is some logic to this concept. If you worked for McKinsey, you know the training and culture that someone else who worked there went through, and therefore, you can use this as a sort of automatic reference check. You also likely know someone who can attest to their work product. Have a Harvard MBA? Of course hiring another Harvard MBA would be a plus. 𝘖𝘳 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘪𝘵? By limiting your pool of candidates, you 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 miss out on the gems that come from other pools. Naturally, there will be some variability in the role you're hiring for. MBB is naturally a place to find someone for a Corporate Strategy role. And Harvard has a phenomenal reputation. Yet, does the hire need an ivy league education? Or do they need skills and character? There are absolute 𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙧 candidates with incredible grit and tenacity who put themselves through a local college and worked their butts off to climb the ranks by adding 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘷𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘦. This isn't to diminish the rigor of the Ivy League or MBB consulting. Obviously you have to be very smart to break into either. 𝘉𝘶𝘵... If your parents paid for you to attend a great school, or even if you earned a scholarship, we can vouch for your academic rigor and book smarts—yet that does not 𝙜𝙪𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙚 your ability to get things done. We would have to dig deeper. I'm not saying that hiring someone from GE because you grew up in GE is a bad idea. It's a great idea because GE produces some of the best talent in the industry. What I am saying is that 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 hiring people from GE for every single role in your company will limit your growth and can kill your innovation. Because you'll be simply creating a mini GE at whatever organization you're at. I'm not advocating for mediocrity either. Never settle for less and don't hire or retain non performers, regardless of their background. Find candidates from diverse pools of talent, but also ensure that they still embody the core values and character of your organization. #Leadership #TalentAcquisition #Recruitment #PrivateEquity #HiringTips #ExecutiveSearch #Grit

❔❔When should you give a 2IC the opportunity to step into the number 1 role? We all recognize that securing the top position in any field is tough. It's highly competitive, and organisations often prefer individuals who have already been proven at that level. But is this always the best approach? 1) Many strong deputies already take full ownership of the whole function without officially holding the title. 2) If the promotion is internal, the transition is smoother, resulting in minimal disruption to the current team. 3) Giving them the chance often motivates them to go above and beyond to prove their worth. 4) And like any level, it is important to get fresh talent in at the C-Suite level for innovation. #progression #career #hiring #recruitment #innovation

🔍 Hiring the Right Profile: It's About Potential, Not Just Education 🎯 In today’s fast-paced and evolving world, building the right team goes far beyond checking academic credentials. While education forms a solid foundation, it’s crucial to recognize the potential that lies beyond degrees. When hiring, it’s about asking: Does this person bring a unique perspective to the team? How can their skills and attitude complement the existing dynamic? A strong team is not just a collection of the same profiles; it’s a balance of diverse talents, ideas, and strengths that work together to drive innovation. 📈 🌱 Hire for growth mindset. 🔑 Seek the right balance of experience, creativity, and fresh perspectives. 💡 Focus on potential, adaptability, and the passion to learn. Build teams where everyone brings their best – not just what’s on paper! #HiringForPotential #DiverseTeams #BalancedWorkforce #GrowthMindset

Recent graduates are ready to work, but many face challenges due to outdated hiring practices. By focusing on skills rather than degrees and experience, we can unlock their potential and create a talent pipeline that benefits everyone. #SkillsBasedHiring #EntryLevelJobs #TalentStrategy #HiringInnovation

This month, I had the opportunity to catch up with several of our company's young professionals, and it reminded me of some fundamental practices I've overlooked. While these points might seem basic to seasoned professionals, I’m sharing my thoughts to benefit those in Talent Acquisition, Learning & Development, or Sales Training who regularly communicate with young generations, especially new graduates. /// Dress Code Whether your company requires daily suits or allows casual dress, remember that your appearance significantly influences how others perceive you. Punctuality Starting your workday just 10-15 minutes earlier than required can greatly enhance your productivity in the first hour. This simple habit underscores the importance of preparation and can have a noticeable impact over the course of a year. Mindset/Self-discipline New graduates transitioning from university may lack professional knowledge and experience, which is expected. However, practicing self-discipline and demonstrating proactive communication and initiative can significantly accelerate their growth. Embracing Different Values We naturally gravitate toward people and environments that mirror our own preferences. However, true growth often occurs outside our comfort zones. /// What is routine for us may not be for new graduates. My intent is not to impose my experiences, but to highlight essential professional practices that can aid new professionals as they transition from students to the workforce. Our company (en world) is also still actively hiring [FY25 New Graduate Recruiting]. If you are interested in us, we would be happy if you could attend our online briefing sessions! P.S. We will be exhibiting at the Tokyo Summer Career Forum on 6/22 and 6/23. Please check the comments section for more details if you're interested.

As the new school year kicks off, I can’t help but reflect on how quickly time flies. Watching my children head off to school, filled with excitement and a bit of nervousness, reminds me of the importance of embracing new challenges and opportunities. Just like them, we all have moments of stepping into the unknown, but it's these experiences that shape us. As an executive recruiter, I’m constantly inspired by the resilience and adaptability we all possess—whether starting a new school year or a new chapter in our careers. Here’s to growth, learning, and embracing the journey ahead! Morgan Benjamin Search Group
