It is the job of every team leader to hire the best members in the team. Each member is a vital part of the organization and each of these members must be carefully chosen to ensure productivity of the organization and team. Hiring the right person and team player is very important and an interviewer has a very short time in the interview room to judge which of the candidates is perfect.

Usually it takes an interviewer at least 15 to 30 minutes to judge different candidates and recommend the most eligible one. The things that are looked at the most are education background,How to Hire a Winner in Your Team Articles employment history and skills. But In my experience, I have seen that there are other things that we need to know about the candidates in order to find your next winner. Always look for:

Knowledge

This is the most important thing to look for in any individual is their knowledge. This is a trait that does not necessarily come from education. Knowledge along with some other qualities of an individual can give you the next winner of your organization. When you are interviewing for any job opening, try to ask question that are not related to the interview and topic at hand. This will give you a view about the knowledge skills of a particular individual. Sometimes many people have lots of knowledge about their particular field. But they lack skills that could have made them a diverse individual in their field. It is better to avoid such people because a man needs to have multiple skills in order to be a winner for his or her organization.

Ability

Ability is the combination of natural traits and acquired skills that a person picks up during his life. A very good example of natural skills is Tiger Woods. He is known to be playing the sport of golf since he was 4 or 5 years old. His natural abilities were enhanced when he picked up other skills in the sport by trainers and coaches. Similarly some of the top soccer players are great examples of natural abilities in a soccer player which have increased their natural ability of playing the sport by learning different techniques from other players and coaches.

Drive

This is the state of mind by which a person will be able to perform a job or a task. People who are ambitious and confident have lots of focus on the things they need to get done with. But you are not just hiring a person for his individual work. You are hiring him or her for the entire team, so it is important that you hire someone who will be a vital part of the team instead of being just an individual performer.
