    “Take the candidate out of the office. Meet them at a restaurant or coffee shop and see how the candidate acts in a less formal setting. Ask yourself if you enjoy spending time with this person and if you feel like they are making you better or smarter by being around them. Ask yourself if you would want to be led by them. This will tell you a lot more about the candidate.”

    Kevin Wheeler

    Kevin Wheeler is one of the brightest minds in hiring, so much so that we wrote an entire blog dedicated to his perspectives on interviewing. To summarize a small amount of what Kevin has accomplished in his career, we elaborate in our post:

He’s even volunteered for the Peace Corps!... Wheeler writes about the history of interviews on his website and in his newsletter which we highly recommend you subscribe to.”

    We barely scratched the surface there in terms of Wheeler’s accolades. He’s also been an adjunct professor at San Jose and San Francisco State University, after a 25-year stint in senior HR roles like the Senior Vice President for Staffing and Workforce Development at the Charles Schwab Corporation. Find more of Wheeler’s amazing content in his ere.net column, at an upcoming industry event, or even in his latest book The Corporate University Workbook: Launching the 21st Century Learning Organization.

But if you are not, yet, in such an organisation, do not feel bad; these tools still need to be more fully realised, iterated, tested, revised, tested again, adopted by more providers, and so on, before they will be as routine as say, mobile apps for employee access to HR data and services are today.”
