Ever wonder what really makes someone stand out in today's competitive job market? In this Habits and Hustle podcast episode, I am joined by Colleen Pelly, CEO and founder of Linchpin, to discuss the traits that make candidates truly hireable beyond just technical skills.

We dive into why self-awareness and emotional intelligence matter more than talent alone in the hiring process. We also explore the changing workplace landscape post-COVID, why flexibility has become non-negotiable for many workers, and which overlooked career paths offer surprising financial rewards without requiring extensive education.

Colleen Pelly is the founder and CEO of Linchpin, a purpose-driven recruitment agency that helps match companies and talent across multiple industries. With experience spanning retail, tech, automotive, and cannabis sectors, she has held key recruitment roles at major brands including Tesla and lululemon, where she developed expertise in full-cycle recruitment from entry-level to executive positions.

What We Discuss:

(01:00) The Importance of Self-Awareness in Hiring

(10:39) Building Corporate Culture Through Hiring

(16:09) Navigating the Recruitment Industry

(24:10) Essential Skills for Recruiters and Entrepreneurs

(31:36) The Impact of Flexibility on Employment

(43:31) Navigating Generational Changes in Hiring

(55:05) Discover Linchpin Co on Social Media
