In this episode, we dive into the biggest “red flags” to watch out for when hiring in sales and logistics. Hiring mistakes can be costly, not just financially but also in terms of team morale and productivity. We cover common warning signs, like frequent job changes, employment gaps, and negative attitudes, which can indicate deeper issues with a candidate. We also discuss what qualities to prioritize, like resilience, a strong work ethic, and cultural fit—traits that are especially important in demanding fields like logistics. By focusing on these qualities and creating a structured hiring process, we explain how leaders can build a reliable, motivated team.
