Atricle Dump - Effective Interview Questions for Hiring Managers
Thanks to the "Fair And Accurate Credit Transactions Act" that went into effect in June of 2005, law now mandates that any business with one or more employees must have document disposal equipment. This is to ensure that all business and personal documents that need to be discarded are handled in a way that reduces and hopefully eliminates the threat of identity theft.To comply with this law, most businesses will choose to purchase a paper shredder and put it into use, as it is one of the most effective means of destroying documents containing personal and sensitive da

WHY DO YOU THINK YOU ARE THE IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR THIS POSITION? There is a happy medium between boasting and modesty. That is what the hiring manager is looking for here.

China is the fastest growing aviation market in the world thanks to the expansion of its air freight and air passenger industries. With air freight growth volumes predicted to drop off this year, how will the country’s significance in the aviation market be affected?The growth of China’s air freight industry has led to a surge in the Asian cargo business over the last few years. This is reflected in the fact that air freight from Asia to Dallas Fort Worth airport (which is the leader in Asian cargo in the eastern and southern U.S) increased by 42% in 2004
TELL ME A BIT ABOUT YOUR PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND? Resume in hand, this is an opportunity to screen the candidate even if you or human resources has already done so over the phone. The key is two fold. First, to insure that what is of interest in the resume is addressed by the candidate. Second, to observe the candidate’s poise, presence, tone, self-confidence, manner and body language. How would this person come across to your boss, your boss’s boss and to your top customers?
TELL ME ABOUT YOUR EDUCATION? A chance to see if what jumped out (or did not) to you is highlighted by the candidate. Is the story consistent? A follow-on question if a younger candidate can be about favorite course and why or least favorite course and why. This is another chance to evaluate demeanor, tone and body language.
WHY ARE YOU INTERESTED IN XYZ COMPANY? This is an opportunity to see if the candidate did their homework about the company. If they are serious, they will tell clearly and concisely about the elements of the company that appeal to them enough to want to work there. If they are vague in response to this question, it is not a good sign about how serious they are about the position.
WHAT ARE YOUR GREATEST STRENGTHS? While this question has been asked for years, it speaks volumes about what is important to the candidate and what the candidate thinks is important to the Company AKA the hiring manager. This question can trigger some much exaggerated body language and eye contact.
WHAT IS AN AREA OF DEVELOPMENT FOR YOU? This is a variation on the STRENGTHS question. This is often less comfortable. People like to talk about their strengths, not their weaknesses. That makes this question all the more important and telling to the hiring manager. The key here is candor, professionalism and composure on the part of the candidate.

No matter who you are or what you do, there's a common force that's driving that shapes your emotions and behavior. It determines how you live, the quality of life and ultimately your destiny.This universal force is the human need. Irrespective of where you are in the world, what culture you are from, what color, status, background, we are universally driven by our human needs. We can break it down to 6 areas of human needs.

Introduction to Document ManagementIf you've never used a document management system, then it is entirely possible that you aren't aware of how valuable these products can be. Companies and individuals who manage a diverse array of documents have found that document management systems serve to simplify their lives and make both storing documents and later obtaining those documents much easier.Many companies are forced to go the way of electronic documents because of The Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, industry compliance (HIPPA), or because it is required by their c

"Only the overall review of the entire business as an economic system can give real knowledge" - Peter F. DruckerNo one needs to emphasize the holistic approach the Six Sigma deployment takes on overall business processes. All processes in an organization present at least one opportunity for improvement. Having a limited picture about the limitations of Six Sigma and its applications projects an all together different picture.At the enterprise level, each company must consider the entire application of the project and this is certainly beyond the line employee l

WHERE DO YOU WANT TO BE IN FIVE YEARS? This can be a killer question. I know, I was way too honest on this one in my youth. The proper answer should be honest, thoughtful, realistic and to the benefit of the company. If the candidate wants a free education and then go on their own or to be the CEO or to be lying on the beach, that’s the end of the interview.
IF YOU WERE IN THIS JOB TOMORROW, WHAT ARE THE FIRST THINGS YOU WOULD DO AND IN WHAT PRIORITY? This tells the hiring manager whether the candidate has some understanding of the Company’s mission, vision and values. It tells whether they understand the basic functions related to the job. It also gives the candidate an opportunity to show off their initiative while at the same time testing their sense of workplace reality.
WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE FOR ME? This can be the most telling question of all. It again gives the candidate an opportunity to show what they know about the Company. It is open and allow for probing and creative questions. It also let you know what is important to the candidate – such as “when can I start taking vacation?” (WRONG question!).
WHEN CAN YOU START? Even if you do not make a job offer (which is RARELY done during the interview), it is always important to know the job candidate’s availability, whether they are currently working, whether they have another job in the wings or are just fishing.
While the questions a hiring manager can and should ask a job candidate are nearly endless, the right questions are essential. By asking these questions every time, the hiring manager will get better at interviewing and will ultimately hire the best candidates for each job.
