QUOTE OF THE DAY
“Hiring the right people takes time, the right questions, and a healthy dose of curiosity."
-Sir Richard Branson
KEY POINTS & TAKEAWAYS
KEY POINTS:
Think about your question agenda this way:
1. What questions (strengths or red flags) did the resume prompt?
2. What are the top 3 skills the job REQUIRES and what questions can you ask to assess if your candidate has these skills? And not only has the skills but excels in using them.
3. Are there team integration or culture fit goals you have that you need to assess with this candidate? What questions will help you do this?
TOP THREE TAKEAWAYS:
1. Create an interview question agenda that is very focused on what you learned from the resume and what the required job skills are. Your interviews are no longer One Size Fits All.. And make sure there is a heavy dose of tell me how or tell me about a time
2. Implement a new policy of giving on the spot feedback at the end on the interview to all internal candidates. The company owes it to them and you will build a following
3. Round out your hiring decision process by assessing what homework was completed, intangibles like promptness and communication skills, as well as interview follow up.
