Welcome to The Rose and Rockstar - with the Chief Troublemaker at Seventh Bear, Robert Rose, behind the bar serving one of his splendid cocktails while our host Ian Truscott, a CMO but not a rockstar, picks his brain on a marketing topic.
This week, over a Michelada, Ian asks Robert’s advice about providing 90-day plans during a recruitment process, and Robert shares the relaunch of his website robertrose.net.
They discuss:
Making assumptions before you can do proper discovery
Whether it’s reasonable to ask for this level of effort
The benefit of the process to both the candidate and the hirer
Boxing these requests into scenarios and limited projects
Avoiding sounding generic
If you have a question for the bar, or maybe an opinion on what was shared this week, please get in touch - just search “rockstar cmo” on the interwebs or LinkedIn.
Enjoy!
