This is an excerpt from Chapter 10 of my second, Amazon No.1 Best Selling Hiring Book for Physical Therapists<\/strong><\/em>,\u00a0\u201cThe Physical Therapy Hiring Solution \u2013 How To Recruit, Hire & Train World-Class People You Can Trust\u201d.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“At the beginning of the hiring process, I am simply looking to rule out the candidates who have applied for the wrong job. I\u2019m looking to narrow down my candidate pool, from the 20 or so, to the 7 or 8 who are qualified and able to fulfill the role. There is a difference.<\/p>\n

I do this by \u201cscreening\u201d the initial candidates on the phone. Whether I am looking for a physical therapist, a front of house\/admin, an operations manager for my marketing company, or a financial controller, I always start by narrowing down the pool of candidates to ones that are obviously more suitable.<\/p>\n

Key point: I do not do this part. I will ask someone in my office to do it for me. I\u2019ll ask one of my front desk people to do it for me, as it really is about getting a feel for who the person is and what they\u2019re looking for. What\u2019s more, trying to get 20 people on the phone is a mammoth task in and of itself!<\/p>\n

The time it takes getting hold of all these candidates is often underestimated, as you\u2019re often playing phone tag with people who could be great candidates. I trust the judgment of my staff implicitly, and this is their chance to take part in the development and progress of the clinic.<\/p>\n

However, you must not relinquish complete control, give the staff member an objective (find the best 7 or 8), give them a time frame in which to do it (i.e. 7 days), and give instructions for what questions to ask.<\/p>\n

This whole phase is about finding out if the person who applied for your role and their career goals, match up to what you can provide them.”<\/p>\n
