A manager needed to hire a new employee, so he posted an ad on a job search website. He soon had a flood of responses. The manager carefully examined the resume of each applicant, looking for specific skills that he knew the job required. Not surprisingly, most of the respondents didn't fit the bill. The manager selected a few that seemed like they might have the right qualifications, and brought them in for an interview. He gave each of them a set of tests to complete that would exercise the skills he knew he would need. Several of the candidates couldn't finish the test. After reviewing the results, the manager selected one of those who completed the tests for the position.
Another manager needed to hire a new employee. He did a keyword search through the resumes on a job search website, using terms that were related to the position for which he was hiring. After wading through the results to make sure that the search engine hadn't returned erroneous results, he selected a number of candidates to come in for an interview. He described what he needed, and asked each one if they thought they could do the job. They all said that they were sure they could. He then gave each of them a set of tests to complete, which would exercise the skills he knew he would need. Many of the applicants couldn't finish the test. After reviewing the results, the manager selected one of those who completed the tests for the position, confident that anyone who could pass his interview test must possess the necessary skills to perform the daily tasks for which he was hiring.
