Tips for Selecting the Right Employees
Expecting to select great performers without a plan, the right tools, selection skills and knowledge is seldom successful. And when we are not successful in hiring the right candidate, we (and our organization) pay a price (lost productivity, conflict, turnover, interventions, lawsuits, poor morale, etc.). There are lots of assessment instruments, survey systems, and selection ‘experts’, eager to sell you their products and services to help you select the best. Some (assessments, companies and people) are better than others. Because this is such an important areas for your company - "Buyer Beware". We know that we – and our products – are valid, reliable and effective! And we are 100% committed to our client's success. Organizations that have a solid track record of selecting great performers nearly always have four elements to their systems. They typically have:
1.	A solid understanding of the job they are filling. Typically, this includes up-to-date job descriptions, key accountabilities for all jobs, job benchmarks including both technical and non-technical competencies (See: What Are Business Competencies?), key job accountabilities, or other means of determining what’s required for success in the job (in each specific job, that is)
2.	Methods and tools for getting objective information on the candidates they are considering – including effective assessment instruments, interview questions designed for the specific job, interviewing skills, the candidate’s resume, background checks, etc. – all of which help to determine whether the candidates being considered for the jobs have what it takes to succeed in the jobs. (NOTE: Ever hire someone and a few months later wonder why you chose them? Or, after a few months the employee quits because they didn't like the job?)
3.	A system that includes a number (at least three) of people interviewing the candidate(s), each with specific competencies they are looking for from the candidate.
4.	A process for rating the candidate versus the needs of the job to help interviewers identify whether the candidate rates high or low relative to their fit with the job (and why).
