LOOK FOR BEHAVIORS WHEN HIRING

William E. Miller?

??????????? Identifying the "Behavioral Requirements" of the job is probably the most important assignment for your hiring team because candidate behavior is the best predictor of job success. ?Our behaviors are a reflection of who we are and the way others would describe us.? They have a lot to do with the way we relate to and treat other people.? The way we have behaved in the past is the best predictor of how we will behave in the future.?

??????????? Some behaviors are better suited for some jobs than others.? Think of a Sales Representative for example.? How would you describe him? Words like excited, extroverted, competitive, and risk taking might come to mind.?

??????????? Now picture an Accountant ? how would you describe him?? I think of someone who is analytical, introverted, cautious, and concerned with details.?? These are generalizations of course, but it's fair to Blake jerseys say that if we hired an introverted, cautious analytical candidate for a direct sales position, we would be headed for trouble and have probably set the candidate up for failure.? On the contrary, hiring the outgoing, competitive risk taker to handle the end of month closing and the bank account might predictably end in disaster as well.

??????????? Without taking behaviors into account in your hiring process, you run an enormous risk of hiring "misfits"… hiring people best suited for analyzing financial trends to sell your services and products; or hiring people who love socializing, competing, and risk taking to guard the finances of your company.?? Understanding the human behavior and traits required for success should be one of the most important components of your hiring system.?

??????????? ??? Behaviors are a reflection of personality. Psychologists tell us Blake jerseys that personality is a product of genetics and early childhood environment. We are a product of nature and nurture they say.? Our personalities are formed and fairly well set by the time we are six years old. Think about that a moment. There's a valuable lesson here.? It means that managers have nothing to do with a candidate's basic talents and behaviors Blake jerseys that the job requires- unless you're hiring six year olds or your own children.?? It's a scary thought.
