General Tips
Don’t go too fast. Often times, a hasty hiring decision will be more costly for your
business than if you invest time in the hiring process. Take the time to define your job
requirements, interview potential staff, and review references.
Consider the whole candidate. Make sure to consider the candidates’ attitudes and
their abilities. Will they be able to perform the tasks that the job requires? Are they
willing to learn, and perform more than just the minimum? In addition, do the
candidates show that they can focus on small details as well as broader concepts? Look
for a match with your company’s values and goals.
Review your local laws regarding interviews. Different countries and localities will
have laws on what you can and cannot ask during an interview. Make sure to learn
about these laws when preparing for your job interviews.
