| In today’s
competitive marketplace, it is important not only to base hiring
decisions upon the technical and functional skills necessary, but
to also consider the qualities that lead to a great “cultural
fit” within your organization.
Keystone takes time to sit down with our clients
and discuss what makes an employee a “great” employee
in their environment. We identify key reasons that people are successful
in each positions and department and try to identify specific characteristics
about those individuals that can be used to compare potential candidates
for employment. We also look at people who have not been successful
in each department and identify issues which are unique and may
be additional points to cover in qualifying potential candidates.
At the same time, Keystone is actively interviewing
candidates who are looking for employment. We meet with these candidates
and conduct a career consultative interview. We talk about key success
factors: What environments do you like to work in? What long term
goals have you set? What motivates you to do a great job? What jobs
do you feel that you have been most successful in?
By looking at these criteria in the selection
process, whether it is for a permanent hire or a temporary employee,
Keystone can more easily and more correctly identify the ideal candidate
for your company. Through this process, not only do our clients
get the best employee for the job, but the employee becomes productive
faster, meaning earlier contributions to your company and a candidate
that is much more likely to make an impactful contribution to your
organization. |
