Jobs and CareersIt is true that finding the right employees is not as easy as it used to be. Even if employers try their best to screen their applicants well, they still sometimes end up with employees that give them endless problems.
Because of this, it has become imperative to formulate an effective employment screening process that includes intensive interviews and thorough background checks. An important part of the hiring procedure is the assessment of the applicants and coming up with the decision of which people to hire.
To help you make sound hiring decisions, here are some tips on how to distinguish good applicants from bad ones:
Good applicants are those who...
...arrive on time for the interview
Being prompt and punctual says a lot about a person's working attitude. If a person is on time, that means he or she respects your time and the value of it. As they say, first impressions last and if an applicant is late the first time you meet him or her, chances are it will be the same during actual work.
...have related work experience and educational training
A good applicant should have related knowledge and skills about the position he or she is applying for. You cannot expect excellent results from someone who does not know what he or she is doing. A background check will help you get to know if an applicant has the right credentials to work for your company.
...appear confident and professional
Pay attention to your applicant's nonverbal actions to gauge his or her character and working attitude. A person who slouches, who fails to make eye contact, who seems uninterested with what you are saying does not seem to be a potentially good employee. On the other hand, someone who appears confident, gives a firm handshake, pays attention to you, answers questions direct to the point and so on, has the makings of a good employee.
...do not have any criminal records
It would be hard to trust someone who has been involved in any sort of felony especially those that has something to do with fraud, violence, sexual abuse or theft.
...are passionate about their jobs
Just from talking to them, you will be able to feel their zest and enthusiasm for work. These applicants are passionate about their work and care more than just the paycheck.
Bad applicants are those who...
...do not arrive on time and do not dress up properly for the interview
The image that an applicant presents right in the beginning of the interview says a lot about his or her personality.
...do not plan on staying long with your company
If an applicant answers that he or she sees himself or herself in a different path within the next few years then you should know that this applicant does not plan on staying long with your company.
...lie about small things
If a background check reveals an applicant has some driving records in the past, you may want to overlook these given that he or she has the right credentials and is honest about it. Otherwise, it would be hard to trust a kind of person who lies about even small things.
During the hiring procedure, it is essential to be able to distinguish good applicants from bad ones so that you save yourself from hiring bad employees who will do more bad than good for your company.***
