When your hiring process is not consistent you run the risk of making a bad hire that will cost you time, energy, and resources in the long run. This week’s episode of the Entrepreneur to Employer podcast is about the 7 interview questions to use for every hiring interview.

In this episode, Brian shares the 3 reasons he recommends using the same core set of questions in your interviews. The 7 questions you can use regardless of the industry or position you are hiring for are:

1. Why are you looking for a new opportunity?
2. What attracted you to our company?
3. What does your dream job look like?
4. What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
5. What type of workplace culture do you enjoy working in and find yourself succeeding in?
6. What new skills are you hoping to learn in your new job?
7. What type of hours do you prefer working?

If you’ve listened to the podcast before, you know I encourage you to build out a set of questions specific to the role you’re trying to fill. Those paired with these questions will create a 2-part question set you can use to make the right hire.
