When hiring an “A” player, we are not just focused on one thing about the candidate - instead, we are focused on multiple things, making sure to ask pointed questions to get to know the candidate. 

Hiring a culture fit matters, and asking questions to learn the candidate's experience and competency is also important.

Our suggestion to you - be sure to take the time to ask the hard questions and use the tools and resources that are available to you through many channels to be able to dig deeper in confirming that the candidate is in fact, an “A” player.
