I have had people on my team who have all the experience and knowledge but are not willing to work. They would delay tasks, do them as a formality, and start missing calls. How can I hire the right kind of people?

Dear Manav Mukul,
In addition to knowledge and skills, people need to be motivated too. If your staff are not motivated, then you need to find out the reasons why they are not motivated.
Factors Influencing Employee Motivation
Employee motivation depends on three things. The first one is individual motivation. Irrespective of the work atmosphere, a few people remain motivated. They could be career-conscious and want to grow in their careers. Possibly, these people may leave the organization early, but as long as they work, they give their best. However, such people are few and far between.
A few others get motivated when they are provided with an excellent work atmosphere, also called a "hygienic factor."
The last factor of motivation is the leadership style. Since you are the leader, have you taken feedback on your leadership style? While no one has ever admitted to having behaved improperly with the staff, leaders who wish to grow constantly take feedback and improve themselves continuously.
Harnessing Business Assets for Success
Businesses depend on four assets: physical assets, financial assets, human assets, and knowledge assets. Success lies in harnessing each asset to the advantage of the organization.
If your problem is with human assets, then it merits investigation into the quality of the people hired. Secondly, people's performance depends on the organization's culture also. Therefore, you need to do a survey of your culture and find out what the shortcomings are.
Though your post is small, it has a lot of depth. Typing a long post is difficult. Feel free to contact me for further discussion.
Thanks,
