To Find the Perfect Candidate, Ask These 12 Questions in Every Interview

Finding prospective employees that actually show promise with a certain position can be a difficult endeavor, but asking the right questions can help generate responses that help you better evaluate how each interviewee would fit in with your company. You should always ask the interviewee how they define long-term success. This will give you an idea of what their future goals are, and if these particular goals align with the vision that you have for your company’s future.

Key Takeaways:

  • Bad hires cost companies hundreds of thousands per year, so a company is better off hiring the right people in the first place.
  • One way to find the right people is by asking enlightening questions that take you to the core of who they really are.
  • Through these questions, you can shed some light on their personality, their work ethic, their values, and their experiences.

“If you want to elicit thoughtful, authentic responses from candidates, you need to put the same amount of effort into your queries.”
