Using MunaHR to process prospective candidates’ applications helps you discern who is the right fit from the outset.

One way we recommend screening candidates from the very beginning of the process is by maximising the questions on your job application form. The right questions will help you discern whether a candidate has the qualities you are looking for before you even read their CV.

Precise and thoughtful questions will help highlight which candidates are motivated and seeking employment earnestly. For instance, if someone only gives a basic answer, or doesn’t answer at all, it can help you determine whether the candidate is motivated enough to be a part of your busy and dynamic team.

The right questions can help you discern whether they align with your business’s values and your team culture, whether they have both the technical and people skills you require, and most importantly whether they have the passion to bring an A Player quality to your business.

Questions you can ask include “What excites you about this role?” and “Can you share an experience when you saw teamwork in the workplace?” and “Can you provide an example of something new you’ve learnt about our industry that you look forward to applying in this role?”

These sorts of questions will help you gauge a range of information about your candidate, to help you form a solid picture of who they are and whether they suit the role before you even look at their qualifications and work history.

Using MunaHR to build an efficient and effective job application questionnaire is just one way of ensuring you get the right people in the right roles to help your business be the best it can be.
