[QUOTE="J and L, post: 187706, member: 3494"] milkmaid, I think that Linda answered most of your questions but I would like to dive into the interview process further. Now keep in mind here that this is the way that WE approch this, I have only been interviewed once in my life and never worked in a human resources deptment. Also important to keep in mind, "There is always more than one way to skin a cat". To begin with all that apply get an application, We have a thourough one. This is true wether we already know them or not. Most of the info is there because it would be needed later for payroll. However when I get an app back, I look at two things. First could they articulate well and are all blanks filled in? This because what we are really hiring is attention to detail, ability to complete a job, etc. So this is thier first chance to make an impression, and you know what they say about first impressions! Secondly is references. What we find out here will support our first impression or not. Never leave gaps, there is nothing wrong with having had a bad experience. That can be explained, If past employment has gaps you may never get the chance to explain it! When we call refereces we are looking for a concensus not just perfection. It is so important to, if at all possible , part ways from a job in the best terms that you can manage and always give proper notice. Now the best part, The interview: The interview for me is really a conversation about no particular thing, Just what comes up and eventualy the job will come up. We will do the obvious, talk about what you expect and what I expect. we will talk about past experience. I will finish this later, Jerry [/QUOTE]
