Your next hire might manage more AI teammates than human ones.
I’m working with a GTM team of 70+ people who built, trained, and manage 150+ AI teammates so far. That’s more than 2 AI teammates per human and it continues to grow.
What should you look for in candidates as you build your hybrid human + AI org?
The challenge is that many haven’t built and orchestrated AI teammates yet. So you may have to look for other signs to figure out fit. You might focus on people who adapt well rather than requiring deep AI experience.
Some ideas:
Learned new ways quickly when their company adopted new systems
Stepped outside their role to solve problems
Uses AI tools in their current work (even basic ones)
You have two options: hire for the ability to adapt quickly or find people who’ve done this before. Both have trade-offs.
The first approach gets you more candidates but needs training and patience. The second approach limits your options but gets you someone who can hit the ground running if you’re willing to wait and pay for proven experience.
If you want help creating specific interview questions for either approach, I built an AI-Ready Employee Hiring Guide GPT (see link in comments) that walks you through this decision and generates custom questions based on the role and priorities. Let me know how it worked for you.
How are you thinking about this in your hiring?
