Decision Point: The Interview: Most Satisfied

Together with the HR Manager of QueStar, you arrange interviews with the three candidates you have selected. They will interview not only with you $($as their immediate supervisor$),$ but also with your boss $($the Director of Sales$),$ the HR Manager, and a couple of the current sales representatives.

Because you know that structured interviews are more effective than free$-$wheeling interviews at predicting job success and eliminating interviewer biases, you have prepared a list of questions that you plan to ask each candidate.

Your first question is open$-$ended and is intended to tell you about their training and work habits.

You ask each candidate, "When are you the most satisfied in your job?"

Which candidate appears to have the strongest response to this question?

I was most satisfied when I did well and my boss praised me$.$
