In this raw and real episode of Salesforce Hiring Edge, we sit down with David Kestenberg — former CIO, startup founder, and transformation leader — to talk about something no one is saying out loud in tech hiring: vulnerability is a weapon.

From building authentic teams to calling BS on fake personas in interviews, David, Josh Matthews, and Josh LeQuire break down how to create a culture where people are safe to be real — and why that leads to better hires, better retention, and better outcomes.

You’ll learn:

  • Why saying "I don't know" might be your biggest strength
  • How to use vulnerability to create high-performance teams
  • The silent cost of inauthentic hires
  • How diversity, culture, and transparency create hiring edge in Salesforce orgs
  • How to screen for realness, not resumes

🎯 Whether you're hiring, getting hired, or leading a team — this episode is your blueprint for building something that lasts.
