In order to assure success in the real estate field, a solid team vision is essential. Everyone on your team needs to be on the same page, adhering to the same processes, and utilizing the same productivity tools and methods in order to achieve your company’s goals.  When hiring anyone to become involved in your business, you need to be certain that not only are they qualified and knowledgeable in the field, but that they are also open to concepts and processes in use in your particular office setting. Look for candidates who meet your expectations, but who also show a willingness to incorporate your goals and personal business beliefs into their mindset without reservation.

A brief explanation of the particular productivity tools, company goals, and overall vision of your company should help give a clear indication of the candidate’s ‘fit’ within your organization. Watch for resistance to your presentation and its contents. Ideally, look for the candidate’s attentiveness and interest during your brief presentation.

Motivated candidates should quickly grasp your vision, be enthusiastic, and eager to learn more. They should also have solid familiarity with the technology used in your organization, and preferably be proficient in such technological tools such as Google Apps for Business and effective Direct Response website usage.

While resumes and applications go far in detailing a prospective team member’s education and employment strengths, they inevitably fall short when it comes to the critical elements of team fit.  A face-to-face interaction is always preferable, allowing you, as the business owner, to get a better feel for the individual’s personality, demeanor, and creative intelligence. Determining how this individual can help grow your business, while mutually gaining financial rewards as a member of your team, is an integral component of your real estate business.
