A bad hire is expensive: it costs time, energy, team morale—and sometimes even your brand reputation. Yet few companies take the time to properly debrief failed recruitments. Most of the time, the situation is brushed aside without digging into the real issue: was it the profile? The process? The onboarding? The managerial context?
At Talent2Africa, we believe a good debrief is worth its weight in gold. Because mistakes—when properly analyzed—can lead to real progress. We’ve developed recruitment audit tools designed to be simple, fast, and non-blaming. They help walk through the recruitment process step by step, highlighting areas of uncertainty, possible biases, or missed warning signs.
These tools are especially valuable for African SMEs, which often lack a structured HR department but regularly hire key profiles. When used effectively, audits help anticipate future needs, clarify selection criteria, and strengthen alignment between HR, managers, and leadership.
A good hire isn’t just about the candidate—it’s about the quality of the process. And that process improves… when we take the time to learn.
