When you meet the applicants the main question you ask yourself is "Is the applicant suitable for the position? A good fit for the team?" or even "Will this person be enthusiastic and work hard?".
Behavior-based interviews allow you to assess a candidate's performance based on questions that detail their past experiences. For example, how they have dealt with tricky situations or difficult people in the past. Behavioral-based questions can provide you, the interviewer, with evidence of a candidate's actual experience and approach - which is often the best indication of how they will work on your team.

To help you find the best professional for your open position, there are areas to consider during the interview: technical skills, cultural fit, and attitude. Before each interview, make a list of the essential qualities an ideal candidate must possess and base your questions on them.
Technical skills
Depending on the position you are recruiting for, you will ask for evidence that the applicant has previous experience in this or a similar field. You need to be sure that he is up to the challenges of the position.
Applicant's cultural
Gaining an understanding of how a candidate behaves in certain situations is key to deciding if they are a good fit for your team and the company.
During the interview, you should ask questions about how the candidate interacts with colleagues and managers.
Frame of mind
A positive attitude is contagious and a great asset to any team. Professionals with a strong work ethic are also particularly admired in the workplace.
