Interview skills training can teach you how to identify the best talent for your
particular job opening. You can also learn the warning signs that a job
candidate is bad news and definitely not one you want to bring aboard.
Here are four
of them:
1. Typos on the resume show a lack of attention
to detail.
2. Poor preparation can indicate a lack of true interest
in the job or be a sign of disorganization.
3. Excessive talking could simply show nervousness. But it
could also reveal that the candidate is not a good listener (and thus a poor
team player) or is trying to hide something.
4. Beware of the candidate who asks the
“wrong” questions.
Certainly you want someone who shows interest in what the job entails and how
the company operates. But if you are asked too many questions about salary and
vacations, you should be concerned about the candidate’s work ethic and
motivation.
