Pass on hiring people you don't need, even if you think that person's a great catch.
In the book "Rework" by Jason Fried, the author emphasizes the importance of only hiring individuals who are truly necessary for your team. Even if someone seems exceptionally talented or promising, it's crucial to evaluate their relevance to your current needs. Making hires out of enthusiasm rather than necessity can create complications within your organization.
Fried suggests that overstaffing can lead to inefficiencies and distractions, hindering your team's overall focus and productivity. Therefore, it's better to pass on candidates who do not fit your immediate requirements, ensuring that your resources are utilized effectively.
