We're Hiring! And it's for one of my favorite teams and roles in the organization and with one of the best talent nurturers I've ever worked with - Robert Kluchko! Our portfolio associates are responsible for ensuring that all of our investment ideas are implemented into client portfolios. It's a fantastic entry into the industry, where you learn about markets, securities, taxes, asset allocation, and building/implementing scalable trading solutions. When I interview candidates, the best question I'm asked is, "What makes someone successful in the role?" My answer is twofold: 1) To succeed IN the role, attention to detail is paramount. Mistakes have very quantifiable costs (trading errors). 2) To be successful BEYOND the role, curiosity is key. It warms my heart when I get questions from our team about "Why are we buying/selling that security?" or "Why did we delay that sale for a client?" (typically taxes), or "Why does our process include this step and what if we tried something else instead?" When they ask "why," they signal that they're paying attention and using their time in the role to prepare for the next one. It also helps us identify with them what that next role might be. Our favorite reason for turnover is that we've helped someone identify their "zone of genius," and they're ready to move. In addition to progression within the team to be implementation subject matter experts, we've had PAs go on to be advisors, researchers, and data analysts. We always hope that's internal. However, even if it's external, we call it a win if they leave us better than they came to us and happily leave the door open for their return.

If you’re a genius, we probably WON'T hire you. We don’t care about your scorecard. We care about this. We interviewed 100 candidates for the Financial Analyst role at Hexaview Technologies Inc. and couldn't find the right candidate. Few of them lacked aptitude, few of them didn't possess the right attitude and most of them lacked both. After wasting one week my co-founder Ankit asked me “ Abhishek, what matters the most? Attitude or Aptitude? Let's hire someone who has the right amount of attitude or aptitude. Because finding both in one person is taking too long. Here's what I said and believe; It's not an either/or situation. They're the ultimate combination we require. You need a base level of skill and knowledge to excel in a role. Aptitude, your natural talent or acquired abilities, provides this. Here's where attitude comes in, - The Mindset - The work ethic - Willingness to learn A candidate had a strong aptitude for coding but lacked the drive to constantly upskill and adapt to new technologies. The best employees possess a growth mindset. They believe their abilities can be developed through hard work and dedication. This hunger to learn, combined with a positive attitude, allows them to overcome challenges, take feedback positively, and continuously improve. As an employer, we should seek candidates who demonstrate both aptitude and a winning attitude. Look for candidates who: - Ask insightful questions during interviews - Demonstrate a passion for the field - Highlight past experiences where they learned new skills You can always train skills, but you can't train mindset. Hire for both and your team will achieve every objective What do you prefer? A person with a good Attitude or Aptitude. Share your thoughts in the comments. #career #growthmindset #leadership
