Lets say you were a boss interviewing two candidates for a job, and by some strange twist of fate they both happen to have identical resumes. They look about the same, have the same education at the same school, same work experience...they are even wearing the same suit!!! How would you decide which one to pick??? For example, you might try to find out who WANTS it more, or who asks the best questions. It stands to reason that the person who asks more questions about the job itself (instead of the benefits) will be a better employee. I would ask for example, how EARLY in the morning do you want to start!
I'd ask how much they expect to be paid. I'd also ask a simple question like "what do you put into a bucket to make it lighter"?
a hole? :shrug: I would just randomly start spongebob quotes and see if one of them could finish it. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Now you add that, because that would be one question worthy of their answer. Another one would be what kind of benifits would they want to have.
Depends on the job. Generally speaking, I'd go for whoever presented themselves better during the interview.
thought about that but i would rather have the person with the most demenstrated initive which is the person who was activly searching the most that they found me quicker.
BTW, the reason I started this thread is because one of my nieces is applying for her first serious job at a hotel. She just wants to get into the hotel business and work her way up from the ground floor as a hostess. This is a person who shows the guests around, when they cant find the pool, and so on. I told her to dye her hair. Dont slump in your chair. Dont let your mouth hang open ...it makes you look stupid. Dont start talking religion or politics...or about your old boyfriend. Smile, but dont show your teeth.
Carcano, why exactly do you think she would talk about politics or religion or her old BF in an interview?Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Ok i will admit i did talk about my partner in an interview, "why did you leave your old work?" "Because my partner lives in adelaide and i wanted to move here to be closer to her"
Tell her to be "perky" as well, they like "perky" helpers running around.Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
