And yet it keeps happening \u2013 over and over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jag har jobbat med <a href=\"https:\/\/bymconsulting.se\/en\/tre-fragor-innan-du-borjar-rekrytera\/\">recruitment<\/a> i \u00f6ver 25 \u00e5r. Den vanligaste orsaken till en misslyckad rekrytering \u00e4r inte att kandidaten lj\u00f6g p\u00e5 sitt CV. Det \u00e4r att processen var f\u00f6r snabb, f\u00f6r magk\u00e4nslostyrd \u2013 eller att man inte visste tillr\u00e4ckligt tydligt vad man s\u00f6kte innan den startade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Three mistakes I see repeatedly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Hiring for experience \u2013 not for potential and behavior. An impressive background guarantees nothing. What determines whether someone succeeds in your organization is how they function in your specific context. Culture, pace, leadership style, expectations. None of that shows up on a CV.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rushing the process. The position is vacant, the hiring manager is frustrated, and you go with whoever feels best among the three candidates you managed to meet. The pool was too narrow and gut feeling too unreliable as a sole basis for a decision.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Skipping structured assessment. An interview is just a conversation if you do not know what you are looking for. Competency-based interviews, relevant personality tools, and clear evaluation criteria are not unnecessary complexity \u2013 they are quality assurance.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bringing in outside help for a recruitment process is not a sign of weakness. It is a sign that you are taking the decision seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>If you have thoughts, questions, or simply want to talk something through \u2013 feel free to get in touch.<\/em><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"595\" height=\"834\" src=\"https:\/\/bymconsulting.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1.-magdalena_om_mig.png\" alt=\"1. magdalena om mig\" class=\"wp-image-3254\" style=\"width:150px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bymconsulting.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1.-magdalena_om_mig.png 595w, https:\/\/bymconsulting.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1.-magdalena_om_mig-214x300.png 214w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Magdalena Hagstr\u00f6m St\u00e5hl <br>By M Consulting AB <br><br><em>Right person.
