[Histonet] Interview Questions

[DKBoyd <@t> chs.net]

First of all, DON'T ASSUME ANYTHING.  Ask questions about every aspect of 
the position.
Let them know what they will be responsible for.
Look for desired qualities ie:  detail oriented, high work standard, team 
worker, flexible, multitasker, critical thinker, acceptable to 
constructive criticism, good verbal communication, etc.
Interview Questions I use are:
Are you proficient with frozen sections?
Are you willing to work over occasionally to perform frozen sections? 
What are your interest or hobbies?
Where are your professional goals.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years.
I always ask one critical thinking question about processing to test their 
knowledge.

[Histonet] Interview Questions






Okay, My People - I will be one of the interviewers for locating my
replacement).  I've not been this "fortunate" before and I do know there
are questions one cannot ask so that's not an issue.  What I'd like to
know is what I SHOULD ask.  This position is fairly straightforward -
basic veterinary histology with nothing significantly challenging (but
with that potential).  What would YOU want to know about a candidate
that would convince you that this person was The One? I need questions
with "meat" to them.  Your suggestions will be much-ly appreciated.
Gracias!
