When hiring, I’ve made it a practice to:
1. When interviewing, ask the candidate how they would feel if they got the job.
2. When offering the job, admonish the successful candidate to remember the feeling they had at receiving the offer.
3. At annual reviews, ask the employee if he/she still have that same feeling they had when first hired. If not, ask why not?
This practice serves to bring issues to the surface or rekindle enthusiasm for the job – both in an effort to maintain positivity and high energy among employees.
