DON’T IGNORE THESE RED FLAGS
ARRIVING LATE OR UNPREPARED
If candidates are late to the interview, it could mean they have trouble
managing their time and struggle to keep a schedule.
Coming to the interview with no resume or additional documentation
to support their potential as strong candidates may indicate that
candidates are not serious about the job.
RESUME ERRORS
Multiple errors in their resumes and email communications could imply
that candidates lack attention to detail and rush things.
GAPS IN EMPLOYMENT
Unexplained employment gaps may imply that your candidates have
trouble obtaining or keeping jobs due to performance or personality
issues.
SUSPICIOUS WORK HISTORY
The best prediction of future behavior is past behavior. Employers
should always ask candidates to walk through their work history and
why they left each position.
POOR LISTENING SKILLS
Candidates who unknowingly ask repetitive questions, reply with
answers that are unrelated to the questions asked or appear lost
during conversations may not have a genuine interest in the role or
know how to show respect for others’ time.
