The Danger of Hiring Without Background Checks: Insights from Nigerian Founders
A "brilliant" staff who steals is more dangerous than a "slow" staff who is honest. 💎
Most Nigerian founders hire out of desperation. We need a "Sales Girl" today, so we hire the first person who walks in. But hiring in a hurry leads to firing in a hurry.
Skill can be taught in two weeks. Integrity takes a lifetime. To grow, you need people you can leave the keys with and go to sleep.
The Lesson: Never hire someone you haven't checked their background. Your peace of mind is worth the extra effort.
What is the #1 quality you look for when hiring?
