Riassunto

Most prospective hires come well prepared for the formulaic interview questions we have all come to expect. And not surprisingly their answers do not often distinguish them from any other applicant. So the employer is left with no choice but to take a hunch.But with High-Impact Interview Questions by your side, you will no longer have to do your best guess work on what answers are genuine, which are rehearsed, and which will end up not reflecting the employee in the least. This invaluable resource shows you how to dig deeper using competency-based behavioral interviewing methods to uncover truly relevant and useful information. When the candidate is asked to describe specific, job-related situations, the interviewer will gain a clearer picture of past behaviors--and more accurately predict future performance.Complete with advice on evaluating answers and assessing cultural fit, the second edition of this user-friendly guide features dozens of all-new questions designed to gauge accountability, assertiveness, attention to detail, judgment, follow-through, risk-taking, social media usage, and more. By interviews’s end, the real person behind the résumé will be revealed and you will be able to make an offer based on accurate findings, not hopeful hunches.

Dalla quarta di copertina

“The concept of behavior-based interviewing has been around for some time now, but nowhere are the art and technique developed as well as here. Finally, an entire text is dedicated to the critical task of framing interviewing questions around candidates’ real-life experiences—questions that will prompt factual answers, and focus on future competencies and abilities.” — From the foreword by Paul Falcone, author of 96 Great Interview Questions to Ask Before You Hire

What if you could accurately project how people will perform in new jobs? What if you had a proven system for locating dream candidates among pools of qualified applicants?

High-Impact Interview Questions gives you 701 ready-to-use questions that uncover the real person behind the résumé. Behavior-based interviewing goes deeper than traditional “How do you manage stress?” questions. Instead, the questions link directly to past behaviors—the best indicators of future performance-—as in: “Tell me about a time you had to perform a task under a lot of stress.”

Not only does High-Impact Interview Questions shift the questioning to real-life events—the book also helps you focus on candidates’ skills, knowledge, and abilities. Simply locate the competencies required for the job—choosing among 88 in total—including accountability, assertiveness, attention to detail, judgment, follow-through, risk-taking, and social media usage; then use sample questions from each category, clarify the answers, evaluate “fit,” and score the candidates. Done!

Landing a great employee takes more than a hunch. When you ask the right questions, you’ll find the best people.
