Customer Reviews

Helped me avoid many costly mistakes

As a solo chiropractic practitioner with no B-school background, this book came as a revelation to me! There is actually a systematic way to evaluate potential employees! Some of the chapters about psychometric testing, etc., applied more to small-to-midsize companies instead of micro companies like mine with 10 employees. Yet, I use the interview format from this book every single time I have a job opening for the last four years. What a difference it has made in my clinic staffing!

Excellent book to help plan an interview to hire the best!

Mercer offers practical help in how to determine exactly the kind of person you want to hire, and gives sample questions to help you get answers that will allow you to determine if that person is a match.
