📉 How do you build a high-performance hiring bar when you're expanding into a brand-new country with zero historical data, zero benchmarks, and limited local brand awareness? On this week’s episode of Hiring on All Cylinders, Kathryne Friend sits down with Ben Baillie-Lane, Head of Talent Acquisition at Mollie, to explore the complex playbook of international market expansion. Ben knows what it takes to scale at speed, having grown teams from 2,000 to 13,000 at Revolut before taking the reins at Mollie. In this episode, he reveals why the biggest mistake TA leaders make when hiring for pioneering roles is over-indexing on technical skill sets, and how reverse-engineering performance data holds the key to true quality. 🎧 Listen now: Spotify: https://lnkd.in/erGyuXGA YouTube: https://lnkd.in/esz_5d3D Apple Podcasts: https://lnkd.in/e5XveAKP
