What kind of personality are you looking for? Your list may include some of the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>technically-skilled<\/li>\n<li>experienced<\/li>\n<li>trustworthy<\/li>\n<li>loyal<\/li>\n<li>relaxed and friendly (within reason)<\/li>\n<li>client-focused<\/li>\n<li>results-driven<\/li>\n<li>detail-oriented<\/li>\n<li>conscientious<\/li>\n<li>well-mannered<\/li>\n<li>well-presented<\/li>\n<li>presents sales skills<\/li>\n<li>has an ability to retain clients.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How will you measure them at any stage of the hiring process?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it would be great to think that these qualities and skills always shine through people&#8217;s resumes, but we all know that&#8217;s not the case. Often, many personality traits only show through open recruitment days, phone and face-to-face interviews, trade tests or half day trials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Listen to Phorest FM Episode 46 on which salon owner Sam Pearce shares her views on the current recruitment crisis in the hair and beauty industry:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Sam Pearce on the Current Recruitment Crisis in the Hair and Beauty Industry\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/episode\/14MLTeoFPn2h1bdWY16JqR?si=01YnomL4QoW9NW6U3OvgWQ&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Key Interview Tips<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interviews allow employers to find out whether or not candidates have the skills and personal qualities that both the role and business culture require. They also allow candidates to determine if the job they have applied for seems to meet their expectations.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Give candidates a tour of your business. Gauge their enthusiasm for your products and services, and look at how they interact with your current salon staff team.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Treat your candidates like you would treat your clients. You never know who they&#8217;re connected to and will talk to.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Go through resumes well before your candidates arrive, and make notes of the areas you want more details on.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ask as many questions as you can. Their knowledge and professionalism should show through their composure and ability to speak the trade&#8217;s language.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Things You Should Never Ask<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Questions asked in interviews tend to stick to a reasonably uniform pattern. Because of that, you might be tempted to throw in a tricky question every now and then. Be careful. Some might violate discrimination laws, and are therefore considered illegal, such as asking questions about someone&#8217;s:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">place of birth, age<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ethnicity, religion<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">marital status, children<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sexual orientation<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lifestyle choices<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One last piece of advice&#8230; in doubt, take HR advice!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>For more great tips, check out our full resource on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/au\/blog\/set-up-grow-successful-salon\/\">how to set up, run and grow a successful salon business<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>This post was originally published in May 2015 and has been updated for accuracy and comprehensiveness.
