INTERVIEWING
- Establish a comfortable relationship with the candidate during the interview process.
- The first interview should not discuss compensation. Whoever discusses it first, loses.
- First interviews conducted over a meal are discouraged. Try to choose an environment that minimizes interruptions and distractions.
- Ask, watch, and listen.
- Ask questions that will require thought.
- Focus on their thought process, methodology, and performance under pressure.
- Do not “lead” the candidate.
- Observe their knowledge of the company.
- Analyze the candidate’s attitude, appearance, and etiquette in order to learn more about their personality and self-pride.
- Discuss former or present colleagues to obtain background information for commonly known individuals
