In today's Episode #70, we're kicking off 2026 with the hiring clarity every remote leader needs. I'm breaking down MIT Sloan's 10 expert-backed hiring tips and showing exactly how they connect to the structured hiring system that consistently leads to better, longer-term hires.
If you're building or scaling a remote team this year, this episode will help you step into 2026 with confidence, strategy, and a proven framework.
You'll learn:
Why structured behavioral interviewing beats instinct-based hiring
The follow-up question that instantly exposes real character
How to attract top remote talent by marketing your job the right way
Why skill-based hiring is becoming a must-have for remote companies in 2026
What MIT's research reveals about hiring that actually works
How to build a hiring system that protects you from bad hires and strengthens your culture
Remote hiring is evolving fast, and "vibes hiring" just won't cut it anymore. The companies that will win in 2026 are the ones using data, structure, and evidence-based interviewing, not guesswork.
