Five Red Flags That Should Eliminate a Job Candidate and Five Green Flags That Mean “Hire Now”
Description
In the gym business, hiring is not just about filling roles — it’s about shaping culture, driving results, and protecting your brand. The right hire can multiply momentum, elevate team morale, and accelerate growth. The wrong one can erode trust, slow execution, and cost you far more than a salary.
Hiring is one of the most important skills an owner can master. Yet too many gym owners and managers approach it as a task instead of a strategy. They rush through interviews, overlook early warning signs, or rely too heavily on “gut feel.” The reality is that red and green flags appear almost immediately — often within the first few minutes of conversation. Learning to spot them quickly is the hallmark of a professional operator.
This white paper reveals the five red flags that should immediately eliminate a candidate and the five green flags that signal you’ve found someone worth hiring on the spot.
