Welcome to Manager Tools.

Today's topic, the effective hiring manager missing chapters.

Reasons to say no, number one, being unprepared.

The questions this cast answers are, what are good reasons to say no to a candidate?

How should I handle an unprepared interviewee?

And what preparation should I expect from candidates?

We recently put out our most recent book,

The Effective Hiring Manager,

and part of the book,

as Mark had written it, were not included. There were several chapters that were left out.

Some of those chapters being about the reasons to rule candidates out.

One of them being an unprepared candidate.

Unprepared candidates, they tell us things

like they don't care about us.

They don't care about the interview, or they don't care about preparation in general,

none of which are things that we want to see from our successful candidate.

Now, this cast itself itself super timely. We're actually going to be in the Washington

DC area in just a couple of weeks with our effective hiring manager conference.

So those of you that are in the area are

interested in that we will be there November 12th in DC check it on online.

So Kate, give us our outline. We have four topics today.

We're going to start with, you can't have it both ways.
