Personal interview
Each candidate is interviewed by one
or more
ISM staff, to determine the specifics of their prior
work experience. This includes extensive technical discussion
about the candidate's experience with the software packages
and/or development tools that he or she has worked with. It
also focuses on evaluating the candidate's "intangible"
skills, such as how they present themselves, their self confidence,
their problem solving ability, and so on. Senior candidates
are often met by 2 or 3 different interviewers. When English
language skills are part of the job criteria, the candidate
is met by a native English speaker.
Technical assessment
To evaluate technical skills for which
the level of knowledge can be clearly measured, ISM uses
online technical tests from the US. We have over 300 different
and specific skill categories available, and
we can combine them into job-specific assessments that match
the exact skill set you need.
Reference checks
ISM contacts former co-workers, managers,
and subordinates of the candidates to confirm the details of
their work experience, and to probe for strengths or weaknesses
which might be relevant to the position being filled. Because
of our large, existing pool and
our long history, we often know several potential references
for a candidate in addition to those names
the candidate gives
us.
