We get into why impressive resumes can be misleading, how to tell if someone has actually done the work, and the hiring mistakes that quietly cost companies years of progress. Cameron also breaks down why most entrepreneurs are never properly trained to interview, how he thinks about screening for culture, and what founders miss when they rely too heavily on resumes, references, and gut feel. We also talk about the side of entrepreneurship people rarely admit in real time: burnout, loneliness, identity, alcohol, retirement, and what happens when the business stops giving you the same hit it used to.
