So you’re ready to hire, and you’ve got interviews scheduled. But do you know how to strategically use an interview to find out if a candidate is going to be a good fit for your practice?
In this week’s podcast, I explain how to prepare for an interview with a candidate so you’ll be able to decide if they possess the characteristics and personality you need for the role. You’ll hear how to decide what traits really matter and how to leverage behavioral interviewing techniques that can help you see the true person beneath their prepared facade.
This “highlight” is taken from Q&A calls with my Mastermind Gold group—a highly interactive, supportive group where people who have tons of questions and concerns about how to start, grow, or transition to a cash-based private practice get the answers, resources, and confidence they need to build the practice of their dreams. We have a group coaching call every week, and we occasionally use excerpts of those calls for this podcast.
More specifically, I discuss these topics related to interviewing a candidate for your cash practice:
- How to define the key characteristics and skills you are looking for.
- How to craft interview questions that can get past the “perfect employee” veneer a candidate will try to project.
- The higher-level characteristics that can help predict if someone will be a good fit for your practice.
- How to explore a student’s likely work behaviors if they have no practical work experience to talk about.
- A quick way to make sure you don’t run afoul of the local labor laws in your interview questions.
