Hiring a new employee can seem so deceptively simple on the surface…

Prepare a job description or job summary prior to searching for
candidates
Take a few minutes to make a list of the tasks that will be performed in the job, and the work experience, skills and education that your new employee will need in order to be successful.

Ask Meaningful Interview Questions
Develop the types of questions that will allow you to fully assess the candidate’s experience.
![Page 10: Hiring Best Practices That Every Employer Should Know Dianne Shaddock](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56649e235503460f94b10519/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Ask the candidate to provide work related examples that support any statements that they share with you during the interview relative to their skills and experience, (this type of questioning is called Behavioral Interview Questioning).

Avoid asking questions that allow the candidate to respond by saying yes or no
unless a yes or no answer will suffice

Check References
You should always check an applicant’s references before hiring
This is a good opportunity for you verify statements made by the applicant specific to their work experience as well as obtain more information on the candidate’s overall job performance.

Don’t forget to ask…
if there were any performance issues, or
if there are areas where the employee needs to grow or improve relative to their experience.
