Remaining objective and law abiding

The major skill sets I need the top candidate to have will depend on the specific job requirements. However, some general skills that are important for most jobs include:

• Communication skills
• Problem-solving skills
• Teamwork skills
• Critical thinking skills
• Ability to learn new things
• Attention to detail

I can figure out if a candidate possesses these skills by asking them questions about their experience, giving them hypothetical scenarios to work through, and observing their behavior during the interview process.

Some skills that I could do without, or train the candidate to do, include:

• Specific technical skills that are not required for the job
• Soft skills that can be learned on the job, such as time management or customer service

Ultimately, the goal is to find the candidate who has the skills and abilities that are most relevant to the job, regardless of their personal characteristics. By using these systems and procedures, I can help to ensure that my hiring decisions are fair and impartial.

Here are some additional things I can do to remain objective and abide by the laws when legally evaluating candidates:

• Document all of my interactions with candidates, including the questions I asked and their responses.
• Be aware of my own biases and how they might affect my evaluation of candidates.
• Seek feedback from others on my evaluations.
• Be willing to change my mind if I learn new information about a candidate.

By following these guidelines, I can help to ensure that my hiring decisions are fair and unbiased.
