Helping
You & Your Candidate Discover
Their Match to the Job/Company
Asking questions and traditional
testing are useful for the "less than savvy candidates" but rarely
for the top talent you need. Try these ideas and generate your own to get
more useful information and in a more interesting and fun way:
OBSERVE AND COMMENT
TRANSFERABLE SKILLS ANALYSIS
JOB TRIAL
WISH LIST
- ideal time to wake up
- ideal morning, afternoon, evening activities
- ideal time to go to sleep
DAILY JOURNAL
- what happened today
- what I thought about what happened today
- things I did and didn't do and how I felt about
it
- what I like and didn't like about today
- my brilliant comments today
HIGHLIGHTS OF MY LIFE
- activities I remember I enjoyed and didn’t
enjoy
- things I did and do now in leisure time
- most memorable personal relationships
- things I created, built or made well
- the hardest decision I ever made, the best
decision
- (ask them to answer these questions for different
time periods in their life,
- ex. before starting school, elementary school,
high school, 18-22, 22-30, 31-40, etc.)
FUN QUESTIONS - SHARE YOUR ANSWERS TOO
