In this conversation, Blake Williams and Ryan Stewart discuss the intricacies of hiring sales professionals and the role of assessments in predicting success. They explore the importance of behavioral characteristics over traditional metrics like experience and quotas, the challenges of promoting from within, and the impact of AI on the hiring process. Ryan shares insights on Affintus, a behavioral science assessment tool designed to improve hiring outcomes, and emphasizes the need for a structured approach to recruitment that enhances the candidate experience.
