1. Write a job description, including job duties for each position.
2. Determine the qualifying factors that predict job success.
3. Develop a list of open questions that will uncover the success factors desired. Be sure to include both open-ended situational and behavioral questions. For example, “If you were in a stressful situation, how would you handle it?”
4. Develop a rating system to objectively rate each candidate.
5. Outline a step-by-step interview agenda.
6. Consider a do-and-observe task where you can observe the candidate performing an actual task.
7. Complete a thorough reference and background check.
8. Never stop working on improving your hiring process.
