Summary
As a branch manager, how do you attract new talent? In this episode of Loan Officer Freedom, the #1 podcast nationwide for loan officers, I am joined by Travis Newton, a branch manager out of Oregon.
This episode focuses on what criteria we both have used to seek out options vs. opportunities when bringing a new hire on. Travis gives us his viewpoint for the way he reads the potential in the loan officers he hires.
Because he doesn’t have very much time to train from square one, he makes sure the LOs he brings on are established talent and can produce high volume for the company.
Tune in to hear how my buddy Travis has hired not 1, not 2, but 3 - $100M+ producers in the last 10 months.
