This is an essential role in the company and I value consistency a lot. There might not be huge fluctuations and spikes in performance, but I know that on a day-to-day basis, Jaime can get the job done and be effective. It&#8217;s something I wouldn&#8217;t have to worry about, as compared to hiring Avery, who would need a lot more support and accountability to get things done. I think having the individual potential to go big is important, but not as much as the known reliability; it is the safer option to go with Jaime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A type of job that would favor hiring Avery would be a recruiter or salesperson. This is because these positions are highly dependent on maximizing performance and landing a big fish every now and then. While it would be important to have someone who did a solid job all the time, these roles place more of an emphasis on rising to the occasion when necessary. Because Avery has a higher ceiling and performs better than anyone when he is at his best, he can get the best talent and land the large sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A type of job that would favor hiring Jaime would be a receptionist or paper pusher. This is more of a repetitive position where the daily tasks don&#8217;t vary greatly. This plays to Jaime&#8217;s strength of consistency. He&#8217;s a solider and will always get the job done, but won&#8217;t necessarily be pushed outside his limitations. He won&#8217;t need to come in clutch because he won&#8217;t be put into that situation to begin with. More mundane positions like these with routine tasks favor that consistency over high ceiling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In considering the scenario, I would personally choose to hire Jaime.
