Choose the right perspective

Look for candidates who have owned a specific decision in production, supply chain, or sales. Ask them to walk through what data they used, what they ignored, and what happened when the data pointed one way but reality went another. Avoid those who only describe dashboards or reports without connecting to actual business outcomes.

Questions to take into the conversation

  1. 01Tell me about a time when the data suggested one action but you chose differently—what made you override it?
  2. 02Which metric did you stop trusting, and what did you use instead to make that decision?
  3. 03When did you realize the data you were collecting wasn't actually helping anyone decide anything?
