Screening Job Applicants

When you need to fill an open position, you don't have time to interview every person who applies for the job to determine who's best. To quickly determine the best of the lot, try a variety of prescreening techniques. By doing so, you can:
  1. Hire the best person for the job.
  2. Save money on training costs.
  3. Cut time spent interviewing applicants.

Conduct a prescreen phone interview

A job applicant may have an outstanding resume. But to get a deeper sense of his or work experience and see whether the applicant can think quickly, is articulate and shares your organization's values, conduct a phone interview before setting up formal in-person interviews.

Automate the process

By using application software, you won't have to look at applications from candidates who don't meet your minimal qualifications.

Hire someone else to do the prescreening

Depending on the number of applicants and open positions, you might want to hire an outside firm to prescreen job candidates.

Check for the diploma

Any candidate can boast impressive educational credits on a resume. It doesn't hurt to make sure those educational credits are legit.
most universities have that info readily available online) to verify that the applicant really does hold the degree claimed.

Consider a credit report

If you're hiring for a bookkeeping position or anyone who will handle funds, you might consider running a credit report on promising individuals to see the state of their own financial affairs.
  • Keep all prescreening free of bias and discriminatory behavior to avoid lawsuits.
  • If you use skill tests, make sure they're accessible to all applicants.
  • Ask what level of payment the applicant expects; if the number is too high, you know the person won't be right for the job.
  • Do a Google search on the applicant to see what appears in relation to his or her name. Remember that many people share a name with others.
