As the cofounder of a company that operates 100% remotely, I look forHiring a remote worker who doesn't communicate clearly is one of the worst mistakes an entrepreneur can make.On a remote team, most of your communication will be written in emails or on your internal collaboration software.
Measuring communication skills can be as simple as adding a question to the application process. When someone is submitting their application to you, ask them to include a simple explanation of their skill set. For instance, have them describe something they find complex in as simple terms as possible. Then, assess. Was the explanation clear? Did it provide you with new insight? If so, you're on the right track.
The confidence to ask for help is every bit as important as the ability to search for answers independently. If your employee is hitting a brick wall, it is imperative that they admit it and seek help. When they can't figure out the answer, employees on a remote team must resist the urge to stay stuck. Asking for help can save time and money when the question shows insight and initiative.
