Competency	Strong signal	Weak signal
Search strategy	Builds clear sourcing plan linked to role profile and market reality.	Relies on generic outreach without role-specific targeting.
Process optimization	Uses funnel metrics to identify and fix conversion bottlenecks.	Tracks activity volume without conversion analysis.
Stakeholder management	Aligns expectations early and manages tradeoffs proactively.	Escalates misalignment late without clear recommendation.
Candidate communication	Maintains clear, timely, and respectful communication throughout process.	Allows delays or ambiguity that harms candidate experience.

Interviewers typically focus on structured search strategy, funnel outcomes, and your ability to align hiring managers and candidates.
