— Because great teams don’t happen by luck
Hiring the right person isn’t just about finding someone who can do the job—it’s about finding someone who can do the job well, consistently, and with minimal supervision. For small business owners, this kind of employee is gold.
But here’s the catch: everyone looks good on interview day.
So how do you, as an employer, spot a productive employee early—before they become a management headache?
Let’s break it down.
1. Look Beyond Words – Focus on Behavior
Anyone can say “I’m hardworking” or “I’m good with customers.” But what matters more is how they act when tested.
Ask behavior-based questions like:
- “Tell me about a time you were overwhelmed at work. What did you do?”
- “If a customer gets upset and blames you, how would you handle it?”
- “What do you usually do when you’ve completed your tasks early?”
These answers reveal mindset, responsibility, and initiative—all signs of productivity.
2. Check for Self-Drive
A productive employee doesn’t wait to be pushed. They see what needs to be done and act.
Ask:
- “What do you do when you finish work early?”
- “Have you ever taken on extra responsibilities without being asked?”
Look for people who take ownership of their role—not just follow instructions.
3. Test Their Practical Ability
If you’re hiring for a specific role (cashier, cleaner, salon assistant, etc.), ask them to demonstrate their skill.
For example:
- A cleaner could explain their cleaning routine
- A salon assistant could describe how they prepare a workstation
- A shop attendant could do a mock customer sale
Practical tests don’t lie—they show you the real work ethic.
4. Ask About Past Work Environments
People who’ve worked in structured environments usually understand discipline and responsibility. Ask:
- “What rules did your last job have?”
- “What kind of training did you receive?”
- “What didn’t you like about your previous job?”
This tells you how they view authority, responsibility, and work culture.
