Michael,<BR>
<P>
Your article about 10 questions to ask was very enjoyable and insightful.<BR>
<P>
I consider the single most important part of my job is the hiring of the<BR>
right people. As a manager, I am tasked with getting work done through<BR>
others and I must have the right staff in place in order to get things done.<BR>
<P>
Interviewing is also one of the most enjoyable parts of the job. I've had<BR>
extensive training in the hiring of people so I look forward to the<BR>
interview process. Unfortunately, we have little turnover so I don't get to<BR>
do it very often. That's a testament to using many of the interviewing<BR>
processes that you suggest in the article.<BR>
<P>
As you suggest, most of the questions that need to be asked in a technical<BR>
interview have very little to do with the technical skills of the<BR>
interviewee. The interview must find out as much about the candidate's<BR>
personality as possible. It's the personality that makes a candidate<BR>
successful. Skills I can enhance, personality I can't do anything about.<BR>
Getting the wrong person in position can destroy an I.T. team.<BR>

Thanks for the article, keep more coming!<BR>
