If you’re going to build a high-performing team, it starts with hiring the right candidate.
…which means knowing EXACTLY what questions to ask so you can stop wasting your time with people who were never going to work out.
Welcome to
INTERVIEW POWER UP
You’ve hired and fired many employees in your day…
In fact, your candidates seem to do well during the interview process—heck, sometimes you even think you’ve found your mini me or new BFF—only to be disappointed when they don’t hit the goals you’ve set, never seem to “get it,” or are a unicorn who doesn’t contribute to your team as a whole.
You’re left thinking that you should’ve seen the signs and yet looking back, you feel like you made an informed decision and knew what you were looking for. So what gives?
If you had just seen the red flags during the interview, you would’ve never hired those other candidates.
But it’s not like you knew what to look for or how to spot where they were misaligned from a mile away.
Except for that part where your current interview process looks less like a process and more like just seeing who you mesh with on a call (which also tells you exactly nothing about that person’s ability to get the job done). Yikes.
You have little idea what questions to ask to weed out candidates who are underqualified, full of BS, or a bad culture fit for your company.
Your interview process also seems to drag on for weeks (and even months) before you feel confident in your candidate pool because you’re not clear on what you’re even looking for. And all that wasted time is EXPENSIVE.
Until eventually, you’re so desperate to fill the job role that you’ll take anyone—even someone who has some red flags—just to get the work off your plate (or another team member who’s close to burn out)—even if it means you’ll hit a few snags.
You want the right candidate who is going to add value to your business—without the headache of making the wrong hire.
Except for one slight but significant problem….
…when it comes to interviewing someone, you’re kind of really just winging it 🫣
Tell me if this sounds familiar…
You show up to the interview with a list of random Qs that you threw together on a Google doc or page in your notebook.
You rely more on gut feelings and “vibe checks” than taking a look at the strengths and weaknesses of your current team to see what gaps you need your new team member to fill.
And you definitely don’t have a clear idea of what you’re actually looking for, so you think that interviewing as many people as possible is the best way to find your human needle in the haystack (but you only end up wasting hours and hours of your precious time).
But what if instead of throwing spaghetti at the wall and wasting hours, you could easily:
- Understand the strengths, weaknesses, and motivations of anyone you interview
- Predict how your interview candidate will solve problems, work with your team, and fit in with your company culture
- Ask the only 12 interview questions you need to have the clarity of who to hire that is your ideal person (and avoid the less-than-perfect fits)
- and BONUS
- discover a way to send people through your interview process that cuts hiring time down by 75%!
- Get a simple tool that will help you clarify the role and expectations so you set you and your new person up for success.
- Discover the most common red flags to look out for so you don’t step on a hiring landmine
I have a clear roadmap FINALLY
I was in a place with my business where I had made a wrong hire and I didn’t have the time to get it wrong again.
My confidence in leading my team and hiring who I needed was at an all time low.
I now feel confident because she gave me a roadmap and bought me a lot of months of direction and clarity, the overall feeling of “I know what I am doing and can do it!”
100% quantifiable ROI
Working with Lauren gave me the clarity on who to strategically hire and because of this clarity, we’ve pretty much doubled or tripled monthly revenue month-over-month!
Confident about who we need to hire!
The biggest frustration we had was feeling like we were at a dead end or worse a never ending carousel of employee turnover.
This framework really helped us discern what it is we are actually looking for, how to go out and get them, and more importantly how to interview them the right way to decide who’s the right fit.
Stop leaving your hiring process up to chance and

Oh P.S. Have we met?
Hi! I’m Lauren Goldstein,
Business Advisor + Fractional COO
I’ve hired (and sadly fired) hundreds of employees in my many tenures as fractional COO, and over my 13 years as a business owner, and I’ve cracked the code.
When it comes down to it, finding the perfect candidate doesn’t have to be difficult or feel like a full-time job.
You just need to know how to nail your interview process.
That means knowing what gaps currently exist on your team (eh-hem, proactively doing your team due diligence), what qualities you’re looking for in your ideal candidate, and how to ask the right questions, so you successfully hire the the best person for the role you need.
Because the truth is that when you’re armed with an arsenal of questions like that, you’ll know exactly how to spot a candidate who’s the right fit (and move on quickly from the ones who aren’t).
Whether you’re in a heavy hiring season or ready to bring on your first contractor or employee, the Interview Power Up is for you. It is going to not only save you hours of time but so much money ensuring you make the right hire the next time you fill a role.
p.s. if you’d like even more support with getting out from under your business and building the right team for you, let’s talk, I’d love to get you more freedom and fun in your business.
This is going to help you finally breathe a sigh of relief with your hiring and give you the confidence to decide who is the best fit for your business – not to mention save you a lot of time, money, and frustration
