Let's take a scenario that each of us owns a company. As you might be already aware, among the prime resources that company needs "good employees" top the list, to run it successfully.

Different companies have different ways and modes of recruiting people.
What are the broad things that you would look after while recruiting people?

The first and foremost - their passion for the job & experience. Everything else, I think comes later.

I think judging the person's interest in the field would be one of the important factor

You should love and enjoy work you do , and hence would be productive

Experience , Knowledge , Previous Records are secondary factors... 😁

I would like if CEans put themselves in the position of CEOs of startups or small companies and say which kind of employees they are looking for. 😉

Experience depends on the type of job. For me I will see passion for the job and of course personality will matter a lot. Social media sites are also a great way to recruit people online.

Okay.
So, I'm the CEO of my Future Organisation.

I would look up for the following in my employees (in no particular order 😛) :

1. Punctuality
2. Sincerity
3. PASSION
4. Attitude
5. CORE BASIC Knowledge in the required field.

I think that should suffice for the initial stage. 👍

Finding the right people is *always* a problem. Every company in the world struggles to get the best talent out there. Startups find it more difficult.

I just need few things...
1. Passion (Mandatory 100%) - Else, no use!
2. Knowledge (95%) - The core!
3. Management (90%) - Time and Resources!
4. Punctuality (80%) - Even if he's not coming to office or somewhere, he should complete the job.
5. Sincerity (85%) - No comments! 😛

Well, punctuality should be the 'basic minimum expectation' from any professional. However when you're the only one punctual; you'll have to wait long times in empty meeting rooms.

- By experience. 👀

If I were the Recruiting manager, I'll just look his/her passion/interest for the job, and a very small bit of technical knowledge is Okay. I guess Passion people can always have a passion to learn and to do their job well 😀

It's actually the opposite. You always try to surround yourself with people *smarter* than you!

Actually it's better if you are surrounded by smart and intelligent people, they have a lot to give to you.

How can we ensure the candidate being recruited is actually hardworking, honest and hasn't faked anything?
