  2. Write the description. Start from the strategy and business operations job description template, then check it with the job description checker: the pay, the place of work and the must-haves should be clear before the second paragraph.
  3. Decide where the person can work. 15% of today’s strategy and business operations postings are remote and 12% hybrid. If yours is remote, name the countries or time zones; “remote” alone brings applications you cannot accept.
  4. Post it where people look. Post the job free on this site, add it to your own careers page and send it to people you know who do this work.
  5. Screen for the skills that matter. Today’s postings name SQL, Tableau, Excel most often: check them in the work, not only in the resume. Score every candidate on the same points with the interview scorecard; the strategy and business operations interview questions show what good candidates prepare for.
  6. Decide quickly. Half of today’s open strategy and business operations postings have been up more than 44 days: a candidate who waits for your answer may be talking to other employers meanwhile. Tell every candidate when you will decide, and keep to it.
