Hiring Smarter: How This Optometrist Built a Better Way to Build a Team
Who He Is:
Dr. Michael Neal is the founder and CEO of Build My Team, a hiring service helping healthcare and service-based businesses find (and keep) top-tier talent. After experiencing frustrating hiring setbacks in his own optometry practice, Dr. Mike created a data-driven system to identify candidates based on real strengths—not résumés.
What He Does:
Build My Team helps companies hire the right person for the right seat. Their process skips résumés and instead uses advanced assessments to match candidates with roles they’ll thrive in. They focus on mindset, speed of learning, and strengths—so businesses hire fewer people, but get better results. With a 97% retention rate over 90 days, the proof is in the productivity.
