We have a tagline in our executive search practice: “Put The Candidate In the Job Before You Hire Them.” The best test is to actually put them in the job and let them do it for a period of time as a test.

The next best hiring strategy is to design the interview to be more reflective of real work, rather than the traditional and tribal 20 standard, stupid, canned, and inane interview questions most hiring managers ask.
