Regarding what specifically went wrong in the completed interviews:

• The primary issue we encountered was the over-projection of these specific skills on resumes that did not hold up under scrutiny during the interview.

 
Lack of Depth and Specificity:

• Candidates often lacked the practical depth/understanding, or specific examples necessary to validate their claimed expertise in leading podcast logistics, strategically updating training materials, or developing impactful internal communications for our specific environment.
• The experience presented felt superficial or disconnected from the core requirements of our role.

 
Irrelevance to Core Needs:

• Many examples provided, while perhaps valid experiences in themselves, were not relevant to the specific challenges or the daily work involved in our department concerning these particular skill sets.
• This indicates a misalignment between the candidate's understanding of the role's specific needs and our actual requirements.

 
Absence of Desired Traits:

• Beyond these technical skills, candidates often failed to demonstrate intrinsic motivation, proactiveness, and readiness to "take over the job" that we seek.
• There was also a noticeable lack of enthusiasm or clear understanding regarding the collaborative nature of our work and our preference for in-office presence to develop better team synergy.
