How Leone Brothers Painting Made a Hands Off Remote Hire

Background

Brandon Leone owns and operates Leone Brothers Painting. Hiring locally had been a struggle, and he needed dependable talent without running the whole search himself.

Strong spoken English mattered for the role, so the pool had to be right rather than close.

The Pain Point

Local hiring had not delivered, and Brandon did not want to run the whole search himself.

  • Local Hiring Struggle: Finding dependable people locally had been hard.
  • Owner Time: He did not want to run the full search and screening himself.
  • English Fluency: The role needed a strong English speaker, a specific bar to clear.

The Solutions

Brandon described the process as hands off. Remote Latinos handled it, presented the candidates, and ran the interviews, leaving him about five to six hours total across interviews and mock calls.

English fluency was a priority, and he found it, singling out a candidate named Rey as being at the far end of the spectrum for spoken English. When he needed two more candidates, they arrived in about a day, which he pointed to as the standout of the process alongside the quality.
