But what to ask from candidates at the job interview?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let us share with you a few tips regarding\nwhat to expect from strong candidates at the job interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relevant experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You probably know more about the position\nthan what ended up in the job advertisement. Tell them more about your plans\nand expectations, and see if the candidate has experience that fits your plans\nperfectly \u2013 or that is a good basis for them to learn what they have to do in\ntheir new position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Do they know the relevant tools? (These can be computer programs, equipment, having a driver\u2019s license, etc.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Do they speak the relevant languages?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Do they have the right social skills and attitudes? (E.g. a salesperson should feel at ease when talking up strangers; an administrator should handle monotony well.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Are they willing to learn new things related to their position?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Life-long learning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The world around us is changing constantly,\nand there is a chance your business will also change over time \u2013 the extent of\nthis will mostly depend on you and on your industry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • How willing is the candidate to learn new things, to expand what they already know?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Handling responsibility and options for promotion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      You should always be clear about how much responsibility\nthe position entails. This is usually also reflected in the salary: an\nadministrator who only files orders and invoices will make less than a personal\nassistant who organizes your meetings with your business partners or prepares\nreports for you to support your business decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Just like with skills, requirements for\nhandling responsibility may also change over time. And over time, some people\nexpect to be given more and more responsibility, while others prefer more\nstable positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Accordingly, it is important to have a\nvision for the position, since your employee will probably ask:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Are there any options for promotion? What are they?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • What shifts or increase in responsibility is expected with a future promotion?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Be as clear about what you need as possible<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        The clearer you are about what you need, the more chance you have to find the right person for a particular position. In many cases, there will not be a perfect fit. However, if the candidate has the right basic skills<\/strong> and the right attitudes<\/strong>, they can grow to be the person who can help your company become successful in Hungary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
