Hiring Help Why Aren’t You Including This Crucial Element in Your Job Descriptions?

This podcast from Aviation Maintenance Magazine argues that employers should explicitly include character qualities such as honesty, accountability, and courage in their job descriptions. The author, a professional ethics speaker known as “The Ethics Guy”, suggests that while knowledge and skills are important, they are insufficient for success. By highlighting character in job descriptions and during interviews, companies can identify and hire individuals who are not only competent but also ethically sound. The author uses several examples to illustrate how valuing character can lead to better hiring decisions and a more ethical workplace.
