•  Most  interviewers  look  for:  – Specific  skills  on  paper  – Specific  traits  in  person  

•  Good  hiring  approaches  will  increase  staff  reten>on  and  high  produc>vity  

•  Hire  for  trait,  train  for  skill

Why  Not  Just  Skills?  •  Lots  of  smart  people  to  choose  from  •  Smart  people  tend  to  work  alone  

–  Not  a  team  player  –  Don’t  interact  well  socially  –  Arrogant  personali>es  

•  Smart  people  get  bored  easily  –  More  likely  to  leave  –  Wastes  training  cost  

•  Smart  people  are  more  likely  to  find  faults  in  the  company  rules/culture  –  Less  happy  –  More  complaints

Goals  in  Hiring

What  does  this  mean  for  you?  

•  It’s  not  just  about  …  – A  great  company  name  –  The  amount  you  get  paid  –  The  loca>on  –  “Because  I  can”  

•  You  need  to  know  yourself:  –  Find  out  what  an  ideal  work  environment  is  to  you  – What  type  of  work?  – What  type  of  people?  – What  type  of  resources?

Ask  Yourself

Typical  Hiring  Process  •  Prepare  job  descrip>on  –  Priori>zed  most  important  skills  needed  –  Technical  +  social  skills  

•  Ini>al  screening  –  Confirma>on  of  what’s  on  paper  –  Communica>on  skills

•  Final  selec>on  –  “Gut  ins>nct”:  Who’s  mostly  likely  to  stay  longest?

Most  Common  Screening  Ques>ons  

•  Why  us?  

•  What  is  your  ideal  work  environment?

AMP  Model  

•  Management  model  commonly  adopted  in  corpora>ons  

•  Autonomy  – Trust  employees,  don’t  micromanage  skilled  ones  

•  Mastery  – Tasks  need  to  be  challenging  

•  Purpose  – Work  should  have  social  implica>ons

Some  of  the  Don’ts  

•  Don’t  apply  for  a  job  you  aren’t  interested  in  – You  won’t  do  a  good  job  even  if  you  get  it  

•  Don’t  expect  a  job  to  be  perfect  – All  jobs  have  mundane/annoying  aspects  

•  Don’t  be  demanding  – Comes  across  as  rude  and  self-­‐centered  

•  Don’t  look  away  during  a  conversa>on  – Shows  you’re  disengaged

Actual  Comments  •  Viral:  ‘Unapologe9cally  Honest’  Wall  Street  Internship  

Cover  Lerer  from  ‘Nothing  Special’  Undergrad  Lands  Him  Every  Job  Offer  Available  

•  This  might  be  the  best  cover  lerer  I've  ever  received.  •  I  wouldn't  be  surprised  if  this  guy  gets  at  least  a  call  from  

every  bank  out  there.  •  This  is  EXACTLY  how  you  land  at  great  employers.  BE  YOU.  

BE  HONEST.  Be  BRAVE.  •  This  is  why  'friend-­‐ing  execu>ves'  in  SOCIAL  can  be  a  

powerful  edge  in  landing  interviews.  Authen>city  is  the  new  currency  of  the  employer/employee  rela>onship.  The  Days  of  be  (one  person  at  work)  and  (another  at  home)  is  gone  and  dying.

Actual  Comments  (cont.)  •  Working  at  a  top  >er  school  in  graduate  admissions,  I  can  honestly  say  lerers  of  this  nature  show  more  ini>a>ve,  resourcefulness,  and  drive  than  the  average  statement  of  objec>ves.    

•  Reviewers  can  tell  if  someone  wants  to  become  part  of  an  ins>tu>on  to  gain  knowledge  rather  than  a  name  arached  to  their  [resume].    

•  Sincerity  is  quite  a  redeeming  quality  and  it  does  not  go  unno>ced.  

•  …  the  lerer  is  not  a  bulk  mailing  to  strangers,  it  is  a  personal  note  to  someone  his  uncle  knows  well  and  that  he  himself  has  already  met
