Important Questions to Ask a Gen Y in an Interview – Part One

A year ago, I asked my readers to send me some of the questions they thought were the best to ask Generation Y applicants prior to a extending a job offer. I was overwhelmed with responses, both in quantity and in quality. Obviously, the tremendous costs associated with employee turnover means that it’s more important than ever before to make good hiring decisions, and the job interview is the first step in this process.

I set out to create a list of the 50 best questions and share these with my clients, but the quality of questions were so good, I couldn’t limit the list to just 50. So I put these interview questions-and the responses employers should look for- in a Special Report called More Than 50 Great Question to Ask a Gen Why in an Interview, and it’s available in a downloadable PDF format.
This week, I’ll revisit this important topic and post some other great questions for your consideration. Remember, the first step in reducing turnover is to hire the right people and get them placed in the right jobs.
