I strongly believe that Inherent quality of a person is most important rather than physical quality. If two persons applied for a job say x and y. Both are experienced professionals and personally known to you. x is professional and have good knowledge about the job. when compared to X, Y has less knowledge but have high learning capabilities, committment, honesty. position applied does not demand instant performance. In this type of Situation as a HR what decision will you take while recruiting. who has to be selected? what should be the critieria? whether inner values/qualities will be judged at the time of requirment? If yes how we can best judge this aspect?

Look for inherent qualities

idea posted by Gargi Sinha Senior Consultant, Hewitt Associates
Few decisions are taken on intuitions, that a person with inherent qualities will performe and he is an addition to any organisation. Experienced guys are available in the market any time, but a person with inherent qualities is always rare. And even it can be tricky for the recuriter if that person does't perform well.

i agree with Madam Sinha, the inherint quality is the most preferred points to be given due weightage,provided  it is noticed during interview.Also this quality reflect with the personal data  so for generated with the candidates.

First you need to put the employee at easethen starta aconversation and get maximum information about his job profile, what he/she handles, whta process is designed by hime/ her , what new stapes weres uggested by him / her, what is her / his team strength and how does that perosn delegate work and keep a tab on the reportees

Post that by while asking pose questions as how he /she solved problems faced adn how the solution was arrived, was that a effective solution, was it given by managment or approved by management, was it acceptaed by reportees or ordered to his /her reportees

The more you talk on his /her work profile more you will find wether that person is made for that job or not

focussing on personal life

idea posted by manikanta raj Assistant Manager Finance, project financing, leading Financing company
In my view if a person possess good learning capabilities he can learn the jobtask at any cost in less time and can out perform if he is good inherently. He/She can become an asset to the company there is no doubt. Identifying such characterstics is very difficult. I think if we focus on ones personal life from college to till date while interviewing we may get some understaing about the nature of the person. If real life problems are given to solve, the judgement given by them can also help us to identify the nature of the person. But how far it will be realistic i do not know. Whether it is possible to judge i need your valuable ideas in this regard.

inherent values and competencies

idea posted by kshantaram GM-hrd/hr professor

 a candidate strong on inherent values and competencies could suit the organisation culture and longterm objectives in a holistic manner being exemplary compared to a candidate with mere professional experience but weak on values and potentials. the values based candidate could be put on a fast track on a fast learning curve and promoted subsequently for independent responsibility and this could be a good retention strategy too coupled with the sense of self-fulfillment the person would experience in the organisation meeting his personal career goals too in congruence.

it would be rather rare to get a wholesome values based candidate with potential competencies and such persons should find special attention in the recruitment process creating a position and strategy for them if need be especially when we are all caught in scenarios of talent crunch not missing this valued opportunity to benefit the organisation paying the premium costs or being patient till the person picks up the threads of the assignment sooner although not readymade immediately.

great successful organisations are built on values apart from professional experience and qualifications for good corporate governance and corporate citizenship to become a brand employer.

It is really subjective. Depends on individual HM's ideal characteristics are usually tied back to company culture, team dynamics/structure etc.

Etc., Some HM prefer aggressiveness to drive improvement, initative. Some prefer non-aggressiveness for longer service length.

Background Check

idea posted by Makrand Bhave Marketing & MICE, WIZCRAFT International

Inherent means qualities or attributes of a person present in him naturally or tranferred to him through genes.

A background check in terms of his family, particularly about his patriarchial side would reveal a lot about the person in front of you. The status of his father would certainly throw light on the progeny. Work place, position in the work place and the number of years in the work place would all lead to making near accurate reading of the person being assessed!!

I would do that during the interview to understand the inherent qualities in the candidate!! Thanks for the referral gargi :)

Look for Hard and Soft skills equally

idea posted by ASOKE KUSARI Domestic Private Banking-Executive/Manager, A large leading PSU Bank - India

No programmed software may find the 'inherent qualities' in a person, nor this may be done in 15-20 minutes interview. But, we are to try this. 

Apart from credentials check, we may go to the background of the person and make him/her  feel  easy 2talk about himself/herself. It is important to look for his / her hard and soft skills equally.

Inherent values and competencies

idea posted by gunjan bhardwaj MBA/PGDM student, jims

When we are talking about inherent qualities, we are trying to refer it to the performance a candidate would be expected to show once hired in a company. This performance is highly influenced and is the result of values and competencies once carry in himself. To assess this we can hire a psychologist to assist an HR, for the interview session who can critically examine the candidate's mind set. or, infact an HR can himself use the psychometric analysis tools, can use checklist containing questions about his past experiences, family background and his beliefs, etc.

look for inherent quality

idea posted by Sachin Rastogi Production Manager, Kanohar Electricals limited, Meerut

To grow a business, only some honest & commited people take a lead. To recruit a person, these quality should be prefered. Knowledge & experience related to jobs goes secondy, but also important.

Job profile

idea posted by Mathew Cherian Research Associate/Analyst, Western Michigan University

A recruiter usualy look for employees when they need certain jobs to be done which require certain skill level. So when they talk to you they keep those objectives in mind and might even discuss it with you whether you can do it. This is how jobs are given once you decide on whether you can do what is expected of you.

GO FOR INHERET QUALITIES

idea posted by Honey Sood STORE MANAGER, WOODLAND

I THINK HR WILL USE ITS INTUTION FOR TAKING SUCH DECISIONS. INTERACTING WITH PERSON SEEING UP THEIR ATTITUDE TOWARDS PERSONAL LIFE, JOB, & OTHER THINGS ASKING DEPLOMATICALLY CAN HELP TO JUDGE THE QUALITIES HE SHE CAN POSSESS.
