If HR does the screening

If HR does the screening, they usually send their top resumes to you for your initial review. They can also do the first level interviewing before you even see the resumes. Then they present their best candidates to you.

Note: Before recruiting, create a list of "who does what" so everyone is clear and the process runs smoothly.

6.Interviewing Questions - put some thought into what you want to know about each of the candidates. Create a list of 10 open-ended questions that you will ask all of the candidates.

Open-ended questions insure that the candidate answers with more than a "yes" or "no." For example, if it is a customer support position you are seeking to fill, ask the candidate "tell me a time when  Arnette Sunglasses,were faced with a difficult customer, what was the situation, and how did you handle it, and was the customer satisfied or not.

Create a separate sheet for your interview questions and capture the candidate's answers on that sheet. Don't write on the resume...keep that clean. If another person interviews the candidate, he/she is not swayed by your perceptions. Give them your list of questions as a guide...without the answers.

7.Lists of Interviewees - create a list of potential interviewers and notify them of their responsibility in the recruiting process. You can have individual 1:1 interviews or a group interviewing process. Try to be organized as you don't want to drag out the interviewing process because of Oakley Sunglasses Cheap,. When I was actively recruiting, losing a candidate happened because of a long interviewing process.
