willingness, desire, and attitude toward performing the job.

Reference Check• The final step helps to weed
out applicants• 1st verify substance- factual
info. about the applicant.• Then style- how they did in
previous jobs, how well the got along with others.
• IF YOU NEGLECT THE REFERENCE CHECK YOU RUN THE RISK OF HIRING A PROBLEMED WORKER!

Making the Choice
• Don’t jump to hire someone you have previously known. Look at the big picture!
• Don’t hire too quickly.• Don’t rush to hire the applicant who
interviewed the best.• Don’t hire on intuition.• Don’t hire just because someone is
highly recommended.• When you make the offer do it in
writing, include all conditions.
