Takeaways:
It's really important that the people you bring on board care about the same things you do. Asking about what they read, what they would do with a chunk of money, or what they like to do for fun helps you see what they're all about.
Sometimes, the best person for the job might not be right around the corner or have the exact background you thought you needed. Being open to different kinds of experiences and locations can lead you to some great hires.
Right now, in the mortgage game, there's a chance to snap up some amazing people who know their stuff but are looking for work because of how the market's going. This is a golden chance to bring in some top talent.
Getting the timing right when you add new people to your team is super important. You gotta make sure you're not jumping the gun or waiting too long. And when you're looking at who to hire, really dig into what they can do and if they'll fit well with your team.

"How far do you think they could drag a dead body?"
“There's so much value in creating a common language inside of your company."
