Essential Things To Look Out For When Hiring A New Employee

· Training And Qualifications

The organisations usually train the employees once they hire the new employee, but to save the time and money spent on the training, it is always better to bring someone who already has acquired the specific training and qualification. Also in the presence of the said training and qualifications, the executive search firms can be assured that the said candidate will be of much benefit to the client organisation and will do the job well. Therefore, the recruiters check the resumes and other documents at the time of shortlisting before proceeding to the interview stage.

· Candidate's Long Term Potential

Hiring an employee is a long term, time consuming and expensive decision that is taken by both the executive search firms as well as the employer. Hence, seeing a new hire disappear in 6 months time seems to be disheartening. Hence, the resumes are checked carefully to analyse whether or not the candidate has served in different positions for a short period. Such investigation saves the time from being spent on a wrong hire who leaves the organisation in a few months time.

· Candidate's Passion And Enthusiasm

This factor may not be judged through the resume, but can be made apparent during the job interview. The executive search firms often look for clues that helps them in judging the passion for the business the candidate has and possible signs of him/her being the right fit. The candidates are questioned on why they want to work in the particular job position and their answer helps in deciding the future course of action for the executive recruiters.
