You are sitting across the desk from a person you really want to hire. What do you say to make them want to work for you? You've gone through the interview process. You have a person sitting in front of you, and you're thinking, I need that person on my staff. I want that person on my staff.
With the unemployment rate at an all-time low of 3.4%, it is very hard to find good employees.
So, you're in the interview with this person who has good character, skills, and experience. What that candidate is looking for is an offer; something that is going to make them want to work there just as bad as you want them to be there.
The money is secondary. It's what you tell them about why they should want to work there that will make or break the deal. What you say to them will impact their entire career at your company. It even sets up your onboarding and your immersion expectations.
So, what do you say to them?
Well, 90% of the time, "We're a good company. We treat people like family, and you'll have a good career here." And that's about it. That is where you made a mistake.
Instead, what you should have done was used the information you learned about your candidate to appeal to their likes and dislikes instead of talking about the company.
