As we begin the hiring process for the upcoming term, I’m spending time training my interview committee—not just to identify skills, but to recognize something far more important: work ethic.
I’m not looking for the most naturally talented candidates. Talent is common. What’s rare is someone who walks into the room and shows they’ve done the work—someone who took the time to research our district, prepare thoughtful questions, and connect their answers directly to the values we represent.
I want someone who makes me want to coach them, someone whose drive is so obvious that I feel compelled to help them reach their next goal. Talent is something I can help develop, but a strong work ethic is not.
And let’s be honest—no one has time to train someone to care.
Talent might get you in the room, but work ethic earns you the seat.
Every day is an interview. Show up like it.
