Good morning. When Zelle chief Denise Leonhard interviewed Preston McCaskill to head up operations of the peer-to-peer payment platform last year, she was impressed by his preparation, problem-solving instincts and curiosity. But what cemented the deal for her was his sense of humor. She "cracked a couple of jokes and gave him the space to be able to crack a few jokes," she says. Once they started laughing, she knew he'd fit well with the team.
We didn't hire a recruiter (on purpose), so I've read all of them. One thing stood out. Why aren't you a good fit Our application form consists of three questions: Surprisingly enough, the question that helps to spot our potential matches the most is the second one - why aren't you a good fit?

As executive vice president and chief people officer at Walmart, Morris oversees the largest private workforce in the US.

And I think it's time you knew about it.
Generally, when someone interviews with me, it's their last interview. And generally, prior to the interview, I have a full list of what I'm looking for. I'm trying to understand culture fit and if they're the right person for the job. It's also an opportunity for me to set expectations for them. To me, educating yourself and learning constantly is what will separate any candidate.
I asked her to tell me about her favorite project. She shared her screen and for a few seconds, I was staring at a perfect world: a spotless desktop, neatly structured folders, and file names (seriously, not a single new or final_v2 in sight). And in the design files, every layer, every component had a proper name, following a thoughtful naming scheme. At first, I could barely focus on what she was saying. I was so impressed by her orderliness.
