In this episode of The Evernest Property Management Show, Spencer and Matthew sit down with longtime friend and recruiter, Dylan Scroggins — Founder of Kalmar Group and property management’s unofficial headhunter.

They cover:

Why most PMs think they need a “director” before they actually do
What great storytelling has to do with great recruiting
How to hire someone that makes you nervous (in the best way possible)
The mistake of confusing “good at lunch” with “good at the job”
How Nick Saban built a dynasty using recruiting as his superpower — and how PM owners can do the same
