Tips to Interview a Potential New Employee

Here are three things to know about conducting job interviews.

Finding the right person to work at your small business is a daunting task.

HH Staffing, which recently expanded from Manatee County to serve the entire Tampa Bay region, offers quick tips to help you make the best hiring choice.

  1. Make your interviewee comfortable: The more at ease the interviewee is, the better you'll be able to judge personality and if he or she will make a good fit.
  2. Find out the candidate's long-term plans: Does your interviewee want a job or a career? Finding out whether he or she wants to grow with your company is key to saving money and time.
  3. Learn what candidates like about the company: Find out what they researched about your business. If you know what they like about your business, you'll be able to tell if your ideals match.
