Lack of Preparation
Learn why interview preparation is key.
A lack of preparation on the part of a candidate can be a significant red flag during leadership interviews. When a candidate has not researched the company, role, or industry, it raises concerns about their level of interest, commitment, and suitability for the leadership position.
Preparation is a key component of a successful interview. It demonstrates the candidate's dedication, initiative, and genuine interest in the opportunity at hand. Without proper preparation, a candidate may appear disengaged, uncommitted, and ill-equipped to contribute effectively in a leadership role.
