Danielle Farage is a Gen Z expert, keynote speaker on the future of work, and content creator who helps organizations understand and engage the newest generation entering the workforce. A LinkedIn Top Voice for Gen Z, Danielle brought that research to this playbook after hearing the same story again and again: hiring responsibility keeps landing on new managers who were never actually taught how to do it well.
New managers are being asked to figure it out.
Nearly 60% of first-time managers say they received no training when they transitioned into their first leadership role. And yet, they’re expected to interview, evaluate, and help decide who joins their team.
Research published in the Journal of Applied Psychology found that structured interviews emerged as the top-ranked selection procedure for predicting job performance.
You don’t need better instincts. You need a better process.
The New Hiring Manager Playbook gives you a practical starting point for what to do before, during, and after the interview .
Not just a PDF
An interactive playbook for your next interview
This isn’t a generic guide you download and forget. Your Playbook lives in Adobe PDF Spaces, where you can ask it questions, hear voice summaries of each section, and work through the material interactively instead of just reading it.
What this helps you do
Walk in prepared.
Know what to look for before the interview starts
Use stronger questions to uncover real capability
Compare candidates with less second-guessing
Walk into hiring conversations with a simple process
Your first few interviews, shouldn't be your interviewer training
What’s inside...
The New Hiring Manager Playbook gives you a practical process you can use before your next interview, not a course you have to finish first.
It’s a pick-up-and-use guide, built to give you the basic tools you need, quickly.
Interview tomorrow?
Start with the Day-One Quickstart.Â
Not sure what to ask?
Use the interview guide and scripts.
Worried you're relying on gut feeling?
Define success before you meet the candidate and use the same rating scale every time.Â
Interview with a panel?
Use the panel checklist so four people don't all ask the same questions.

Once you’ve run a few interviews with this, you’ll start noticing patterns: where your process breaks down, where bias creeps back in, and where your questions aren’t getting you real signal.
That’s exactly what Expert Interviewers: The Course is built to fix: the deeper system behind the playbook, for when you’re ready to go further.
