A clear, succinct and useful video on how to pinpoint candidates who are likely to be high performers on the job. Here are some additions and emphases:
- Using valid, reliable psychometric tests can help in that process; resumes are helpful only to an extent, and interviews ought to be structured and behavior-focused.
- Intelligence gets the short shrift in some circles, but it's de rigueur and it's the basis for learning, performing and growing.
- Work ethic is akin to Stephen Covey's be proactive, that is, taking initiative to get things done and seeking to contribute beyond listed duties are prized attributes indeed.
- Along with hypothetical scenarios, asking candidates for specific examples of how they dealt with a moral dilemma or ethical faux pas will help illuminate their integrity.
