Best Questions to Ask Candidates in an Interview
You’ll note that all the questions below are behavioural based questions; meaning that you are asking for examples of things that the candidate has done in their past jobs. These types of questions eliminate a “yes” or “no” response and provide you with insight into how the candidate has handled “real life” situations at work.
What are Personality Assessments and How Can They Help Your Team?
Personality assessments can give us the final green light we need when hiring new talent, or the reverse, solidifying why a team member hasn’t been meshing with the rest of the team and needs to be let go.

What Our Clients Say About Us
“We are a small business going through a fast growth yet want to stay nimble and lean. We want a human resource solution, not a human resource department. Vertical Bridge won our consulting contract after two rounds of screening process with its professional, to-the-point presentation and proposal. Their designated consultant Laurie Caldi was hands on, thorough and patient. Based on the unique nature of our requirements, Vertical Bridge delivered a HR solution, Bamboo HR, which fit our budget, current needs and possibility for further expansion. Laurie made sure our questions were answered and our staff were properly trained and felt comfortable using the system on our own. Among all the deliverables, there were a set of standard HR templates, a performance review program, an incentive program, as well as a comprehensive employee handbook. Overall, we are very happy with their expertise and quality of work and services, and we will not hesitate recommending them to other businesses.”
“As we are a start-up enterprise; Managed Services from Vertical Bridge is an ideal solution to facilitate our scale up hiring plans and proactively set up and manage our HR systems and processes until our business requires a full time, on-site HR professional. Dawn has become a trusted member of our team; not only providing necessary expertise, but also valuable insight into our talent acquisition and management strategies.”
“Sandra and her team have always exceeded my expectations, bringing us top-notch candidates who have become solid members of our team. Sandra has also helped us refine our HR processes. No task is too small for Sandra. I don’t know what I would do without her.“
“Phyton Biotech began its relationship with Vertical Bridge in 2012. Over the past eight years Vertical Bridge has been a strategic partner with Phyton to help a small ~50 employee company grow from a organization with little HR structure to one that’s fully able to address company culture and engagement, employee issues, corrective behavior, manage leadership development, performance management, and recruitment while helping develop and mentor an in house HR professional. The professionals at Vertical Bridge have been able to provide Phyton with guidance on employee handbooks, recruitment, leadership development, group training, teamwork, conflict management, compensation and being available for general ad hoc needs. I am happy to recommend Sandra and her team to any organization requiring HR support whether for projects or assisting to establish HR infrastructure to help manage and develop your most precious resources.”
“Sandra and the Vertical Bridge team have helped us tremendously with our human resources policies and training. They took the time to get to know our business, understand our values and helped us create a robust end-to-end employee handbook that has enabled us to grow while ensuring we follow employment standards and industry best practices. Sandra has a wealth of experience in the field of HR and has been a trusted advisor to our business.”
