#73 – Don’t Be That Guy: You Suck at Hiring (Fletcher Wimbush – Discovered)

In this Don’t Be That Guy webinar episode of The BMK Vision Podcast, Josh Peterson sits down with Fletcher Wimbush of Discovered for a direct, no-nonsense conversation MSP owners need to hear: you suck at hiring—and it’s costing you more than you think.   Fletcher breaks down why most MSP hiring processes fail before the first interview even happens, how relying on “gut feel” leads to expensive mistakes, and why assessment-first hiring is the fastest way to reduce turnover and improve team performance. The discussion covers screener questions, integrity and attitude assessments, reference checks that actually matter, and how to keep recruiting without misleading candidates or burning yourself out.   If you’re an MSP owner juggling growth, service delivery, and leadership—and still hiring reactively—this episode will challenge your assumptions and give you a clearer path forward.   Guest: Fletcher Wimbush Founder of Discovered, Fletcher has spent more than a decade helping small and mid-sized businesses fix broken hiring processes. He specializes in recruitment automation, assessment-driven hiring, and reducing turnover by helping leaders make better decisions earlier in the process.   Host: Josh Peterson Josh Peterson is CEO of Bering McKinley, a management consulting firm that helps MSPs scale through operational discipline, financial clarity, and leadership development.
