Are you rejecting top bilingual talent because of cultural misunderstandings? Find out in 7 questions.
I used to think I was spotting “red flags” in job interviews.
👀 No eye contact
👀 Indirect answers
👀 Too formal
My verdict? Poor performance.
Human Resource’s verdict? “Actually… those are cultural differences.” 🤦
That was my wake-up call.
Without cultural intelligence, I wasn’t just missing out on great talent—I was making expensive hiring mistakes. Every rejected candidate cost us $4,000+ in wasted recruiting costs (SHRM) and 16 weeks to fill the role (Glassdoor).
Worse? Our competitors hired the multilingual engineers I rejected.
