Most leaders will make 50+ hiring decisions in their career. Get half of them wrong—which studies show is average—and you'll spend years managing the consequences: the underperformer you can't quite fire, the team that quietly resents them, and the search you have to run all over again.The ability to assess talent with precision is the highest-leverage skill in business. And almost nobody has been trained to do it.That's why we founded <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://talgo.io">Talgo</a>—and over the past decade have trained thousands of executives, investors, and hiring leaders at Sequoia, THL, Palantir, and 150+ other top firms. Now we've distilled that methodology into this immersive three-session workshop. You will leave a fundamentally different judge of talent.You'll emerge with:<ul><li>A repeatable system for identifying top talent in any role</li><li>The ability to cut through polished candidates and get to the truth</li><li>Hiring accuracy that compounds across every role you fill for the rest of your career</li></ul>Plus 6 months of access to Talgo On Demand—annotated interview demos and coaching breakdowns used by top firms.This isn't HR fluff. It's how you stop making expensive hiring mistakes and start building the team you actually need to win.
