During the interview process:

|

- Use the first meeting with a candidate to set the mood for the interview process. Explain what the candidate can expect; exhibit enthusiasm. Address any issues that are important to them – such as, any timing concerns they may have about their move.
- Keep interviews scheduled close together. Maintain interest – don't allow the process to drag.
- Clearly communicate your firm's strengths and future prospects, your expectations of the candidate and personalized goals. Explain how your firm helps support new hires to assure their success.
- Make sure members of the interviewing team clearly understand what you are looking for and present this consistently.
- Maintain constant contact with candidates to show your firm's continued interest.
