Correct Answer: If you have hired one or more people during your career, your answer might go something like this: " Yes, I have hired peopleI have also decided whether some internal applicants were right for jobs in my department The first time I hired someone ,I concentrated on checking off all the right qualificatiosI just went down a checklist Since then,though, I've learned that some candidates who became excellent workers didn't necessarily have every qualification on that checklistThey more than make up for what they lacked in the beginning with enthusiasm and a willingness to work with others" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you've never hired anyone? Show the interviewer you appreciate that he or she is trying to evaluate both your management potential and people skills,and try something like this: "Not realy,but on several occasions I was asked to speak to prospective applicants and offer my opinion Ofcourse , in those cases, I was trying to determine whether that person would be a team player and if he or she would get along with the other people in the department"
