Although Avery&#8217;s work performance is inconsistent, if I had a business-critical task that I needed someone on my team to get done, I would want to be confident in the quality of work and it sounds like with that extra push and challenge Avery would be able to rise to the occasion. Also, with having a high-performance ceiling, I&#8217;d imagine that Avery associate&#8217;s themselves with others who also have high-performance ceilings. I would leverage their network to hopefully find others that are more consistent and also are high performers to bring into my company. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Describe a type of job where it would be better to hire someone like Avery (i.e., high potential, poor consistency) than Jaime?

The work is more ambiguous and dependent on their own efforts such as a sales job, or other commission-based roles. What makes Avery valuable is their ability to perform very highly occasionally, this in a way, can potentially allow employers to look past her slacking off if high potential is critical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Describe a type of job where it would be better to hire someone like Jaime (i.e., low potential, high consistency) than Avery? What is it about that job that makes someone like Jaime more valuable?<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Jaime would likely do better in an environment in which the work doesn&#8217;t vary much on day to day basis and the pay is based upon the work and not necessarily performance-based. They will come to work to get the job done, but won&#8217;t give much extra effort or put in extra hours if needed. A job like this may be an office type job, with very routine work. What makes Jamie valuable is the fact that they are extremely consistent, this makes for a dependable employee and someone that can be counted on for consistent results<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you were in the shoes of the business owner and had to choose which person would you hire (Avery or Jaime) and why?
