How To Interview People: Hire the Perfect Person Every Time - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

There are a thousand books on how to ace an interview. This is the one on how to run one.

And yet you're the one making the call. You're the one who has to look at a stack of resumés, sit down with five strangers, and decide which one joins your team. Get it right and you build something. Get it wrong and you're doing it all over again in six months — after the training, the onboarding, the disruption, and the tens of thousands of dollars.

There's a better way.

Executive Recruiter Frannie Meisen spent years placing candidates in roles from entry-level to C-suite. She learned to see past the polished performances and rehearsed answers, past the version of themselves candidates think they have to present in order to get the job.

Her method comes down to two things: Credentials — can they do the job? And Chemistry — will they last?

What's inside:

• The complete eight-section interview template. Every question. Every follow-up. Start to finish, ready to use.
• The "zip code opener." One unexpected question that gets guarded candidates talking in under a minute.
• How to read a LinkedIn profile like a recruiter. What matters. What doesn't. What most people miss entirely.
• The follow-up questions that break through rehearsed answers — and the four words that unlock more truth than any clever question ever will.
• Body language, decoded. When it tells you something real, and when you're reading into nothing.
• A post-interview evaluation framework that turns "I liked them" into a decision you can actually defend.
• Seven interviewing mistakes that sink good hires — including the one nearly everyone makes without noticing.
• Special scenarios covered: virtual interviews, panel interviews, internal candidates, executive hires, and hiring for your own home.

Whether you're a hiring manager for a major corporation, a small business owner, or a parent hiring a nanny, the fundamental principles of what makes a productive interviewing experience don't change.

Here's the thing about great interviews: they don't feel like interviews at all. They feel like conversations.

How To Interview People teaches you how to have that conversation — every single time.
