Are you hiring the right employees?
New Interview and Hiring Guide Released
While hiring the right people may appear more obvious in small, entrepreneurial companies, it is also true in larger companies. The right people will have the foresight to help an enterprise change and keep up with their industry. With the right people, you can move ahead and you will have a team that supports your success.
As a manager in today's tough economic conditions, what can you do to ensure you hire the right people? Before you start the recruiting process, be sure you know these things:
- Understand the job requirements and expectations from the employee
- Understand the working style of the managers and staff where the position will be
- Understand your company's culture and communicate that to the candidates
- Conduct structured interviews that get to the true fit of the candidates with the enterprise, and
- Manage the process to minimize your enterprise's legal exposures
After you have done your planning, screened the applicants and interviewed job candidates, your decision to hire a person ultimately rests on your intuitive sense of whether this is the right person for the job.
Nothing can prepare you for that decision except your own experience supplemented with hard facts and discussions with the other interviewers. If you interview a lot of people, you will learn the signs that tell you a person is right. If you interview or hire infrequently, you will have to depend on less-intuitive methods and other people to help you.
If you work for a company that believes in high quality employees, you should be really enthusiastic about the person you want to hire, not just lukewarm.

Good News for IT Professionals - IT Salary Free Fall Ends!!
Mid-Year 2010 IT Salary Survey Released
The Mid-Year 2010 IT Salary Survey is good news for IT Professionals. The survey shows that hiring is picking up in some sectors of the IT job market, salaries have stopped falling, and for selected positions there has been an increase in compensation - especially for CIOs. Even though many fear a second dip in the economy, CIOs in larger enterprises have been give the 'yellow light' to look ahead and fill positions that were left unfilled last year., The same is not the case for mid-sized companies. They are much more cautious and concerned that the recovery will not be strong enough to support increased IT spending. In follow-up interviews of the participants we found that CIOs are starting their 2011 planning processes with the assumptions that the economy will improve in the first part of next year. If that holds true them hiring and compensation should pick up.
