The application and resume should tell you if the person can (on paper) do the job. The purpose of the interview is to ferret out those who have over-represented their skills on paper, or who you just can't stand (personality or "chemistry" problems)

  • Do not be surprised if you know within 20 seconds that the interviewee is not going to be "the one"
  • An interview should be conducted on your turf so the interviewee is not as poised as he might be
  • The questions should be around past performance (What did you do when ...) not hypothetical performance (What would you do if ...)
  • The questions should probe for knowledge of your firm's activities, an interviewee should have cared enough to have done his homework
  • The interview should demonstrate poise under pressure
  • If none of the interviewees are what you want, do not hire the best of a poor selection - cast your net for a new set.
