Create a Detailed Job Description

Even before you advertise for a position you should create a detailed job description. However, if you have gone ahead and advertised, it is still not too late to create your job description .

You should not only outline the details of what the job entails but you also want to make a note of the skills and qualities that you want a successful candidate to have. 

 You also need to look at your company culture and what you value the most. This will help you shortlist candidates. 

Do Multiple Interviews

Do not be afraid to interview candidates that you are interested in more than once.  It is often not enough to determine whether or not a candidate is fully eligible just from one interview.

You can let your candidates do more than one interview with different interviewers. It is best to conduct one virtually and then one in person. 

The first interview can be a way of feeling out of whether or not the person will be suitable. If you think they might be then you can call them in for an in-person interview.
