Where I currently work one of my responsibility is to interview new hires. I recently just interviewed a potential new hire. At the interview I got along with him tremendously, he had a great personality, easy going, down to earth and just easy to talk to. At the interview he mentioned to me that he really needs the job since his wife is out of work, and he needs the money to support his family. He had tried many other jobs before but they either did not pay enough or they were just not interested in him. The only issue I had was that I was uncertain whether he would be good for the job or not. I really wanted to hire him since I really got along with him and I felt bad for his predicament. After the interview I told him that I would get back …show more content…
“The Ladder of Inference was first put forward by organizational psychologist Chris Argyris and used by Peter Senge in The Fifth Discipline: The Art and Practice of the Learning Organization.” (Team, n.d.). The Ladder of Inference method basically takes you through the thinking process that most people do before they take any actions. By breaking down this process step by step you are able analyze your thought process better and make sure that you are truly coming to the right decision. Each of these steps in your thought process is like a rung in a ladder. The 1st rung in the ladder would be the Reality and Facts, 2nd rung Selected Reality, 3rd rung Interpreted Reality, 4th rung Assumptions, 5th rung Conclusions, 6th rung Beliefs, and the 7th rung Actions. I will first start with which ever rung I am holding at, which is the 4th rung Assumptions, and ask myself what I am thinking and why. I will retract my steps all the way back to the first rung in the ladder enabling me to organize my thoughts clearer and hopefully come to the right conclusion.
What are my assumptions? That he would be willing to work harder than most people. Why? Because he really needs the job to support his family. My other assumption is that if he would not be suited for the job, perhaps in the long run it would even be best for him if he did not get the job. Why? Because if he is not suited for the job he
What was the candidate's attendance record? Was the candidate on-time and dependable? She is dependable, and on time for work.
Displays some competency, but lacking in some areas; would likely have difficulty with the position.
I begin my interview by asking my interviewee basic information. His is a twenty year old
He would feel violated and would wonder what kind of company he was applying with.
Based on Steven Robinson’s resume his education, job skills, experience and other competences fit (P – O fit and P – J fit) the organizations requirements and the job requirements better than the other candidates. Hiring Robinson would be the right thing to do. Not only his is qualified and a potential candidate for
given him a list of questions that would prepare him well for the job. According to the boss:
Finding the right candidate for such a high-profile position for a large city to replace a long-standing member of the force with extremely mixed reviews will be difficult and require expertise and many considerations.
I agree with Danny’s philosophy to only hire people that he sees being one of the top three workers in their role. If they cannot even rise to be part of the top three at any point in their career there, what is the point in even hiring them? Why hire a worker that you feel is at best mediocre? Workers should be hired when the expectation for their performance exceeds that of all other workers in the company. Danny also talks about the concept of a “whelming” candidate. See, with an overwhelmingly qualified candidate you know that they will excel at their job and will do great things in their role. With an underwhelmingly qualified candidate they will either quit or be fired for underperforming. The issue with a “whelming” candidate is that they are completely average. They won’t go on to excel in their role, they won’t do great things, but they also avoid underperforming to the point of demoting or firing them. They are simply dead weight, and the biggest problem is they are often only uncovered by the time they have been working in their position for quite a while already.
The first person I interviewed can be identified as a Caucasian, twenty-two year old, male. He is a college graduate who has an associates degree in fire science from Northshore Community College. This male is currently employed at ENE Systems as a buildings operator and works as a mechanic at Lucey’s Service Station on the weekends. He is a son, a brother to four siblings, and an uncle to three nieces and three nephews. I interviewed this male in his own home behind closed doors so there was no other input from outside sources. After obtaining his basic information, I asked him what he thought
Obviously, this new employee was worried about his job. The only question he was able to ask was for clarity about what was meant by pace your work. But I am sure he must have been worried about more than that. Not being able to answer the phone, making sure he remembered the proper way to handle the forms in his in basket, and
Analysis of conflict through Ladder of Inference Tovah A. Hunter UNIV 1001-AY2017-T5 Running Head: ANALYSIS OF CONFLICT THROUGH LADDER OF INFERENCE 2 I have been in conflict with a job related body injury. That has caused countless hours at doctor’s appointments deciding between an appropriate medication to stop aches and pains, and when is an appropriate time to return to work? This injury is unlike any I have ever experienced and takes time and effort to get life going normally. However, it is not the injury that is causing the grief; it is finding an ability to mentally grasp the fast past movement of daily business through reasoning, facts, and reality.
Should Eric accept the offer? If he does, can he continue to pursue other jobs actively?
