Recommendation
Some steps a hiring manager takes are easy enough, such as assessing a candidate’s skill, employment history and educational background. But some steps are a far greater challenge, like determining an applicant’s character, motivation and tenacity. David Snyder, a business consultant with a psychology graduate degree from Harvard, believes that managers must be able to evaluate applicants’ personality traits to hire the right people. His assertions are hard to dispute. His book is loaded with good advice, although the writing can get choppy and repetitive. Still, getAbstract believes Snyder provides solid, practical and useful information. When you think how hard it is to live with – or discard – an incorrect hire, you’ll want to be sure you take on the right people.
