Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

# Hiring by Role

## Overview

Every role requires a different evaluation approach. Hiring an engineer like
you'd hire a salesperson = mediocre hires in both roles. The mistake: using
the same interview process for every position — a generic "tell me about

How to install

mdr add leadmagic/gtm-skills/hiring-by-role@sha256:4810ad0d5c8673a5

Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
