The Fit That Matters
Mary Ann Faremouth is interviewed by Chris Sandland.
What makes a candidate truly stand out in today’s job market? On this episode of Career Can Do, guest host Chris Sandland turns the mic around and interviews yours truly, Mary Ann Faremouth, to explore what separates top performers from the rest and why the human element in recruiting still matters more than ever. Mary Ann is the CEO of Faremouth & Company, a nationally recognized recruiting firm, and a passionate advocate for a more holistic approach to hiring.
Rather than focusing just on resumes and job descriptions, Mary Ann looks at the full picture - who the candidate is, what motivates them, and how they’ll fit into a company’s culture. She shares stories of candidates who went above and beyond, doing detailed research and presenting thoughtful plans at their interviews, and explains why humility and a “we, not me” mindset are powerful assets.
Technology and AI may have changed the recruiting landscape, but Mary Ann argues that relationships, instincts, and real conversations still lead to the best hires. “The applicants are in the driver’s seat,” she says, “so companies need to start looking beyond the resume and take a fresh look at how they hire.”
