Choosing Among Qualified Candidates for Promotion or Hiring
In any business that has employees (Sorry, this article may not be useful to you
who are a one-person home based enterprise.) one of the most difficult decisions
arises when filling a position. How do you decide which one, from two or more
qualified candidates, to put into that slot. The choice often turns upon very
minor considerations. One had a bigger smile, one had a tie that you liked, one
reminded you of your favorite Uncle Joe.
Without a more solid evaluation, you may feel that you could not go wrong with
any of the choices. As you flip a coin, you wonder in the back of your mind how
you will tell the loser. If you can point to the numbers and show why one was a
better fit, you can appear to be less arbitrary.
So how do you make that evaluation?
First, you run the numbers of your business from the founding date and the
business name. This chart will tell you what your business needs from an
employee.
Second, determine the qualities necessary to do the job. When you set the job
qualifications you pinpoint the type of individual that would be effective. You
would not put an introverted person who is obsessed with details into a selling
position for a cruise line, nor would you hire an accountant who is satisfied
with a lick and a promise.
Third, sort out the candidates by your parameters. In an interview or from the
resumes you will quickly sift out those who definitely are not a match. This
sorting will probably leave you with several in whom you are still interested.
Now the fun begins
The first Volume of the newsletter contains instructions in calculating the
various core numbers. If you missed these articles or would like to refresh your
memory, you will find these articles at
The core numbers are as follows:

talents and abilities. This number much be compatible with the job to be done.
Soul Urge. Total of all the vowels in the birth name. This number discloses the
primary motivation. The motivation of the candidate should be compatible with
the motivation of the company.
Birth day. merely the day of birth, This numbers discloses obvious traits.
Personality Number. Total of all the consonants in the birth name. This number
discloses the immediate impression that other people have when first meeting
this individual.
A full evaluation and comparison can become detailed, but if you are filling an
important position that involves a costly training program, you may benefit from
a workup on all the candidates from a professional numerologist.
Sometimes just running the numbers will give you a clear cut choice that stands
out above the others. At other times you will have two or more candidates who
still seem to be equal. A more in depth look at the numbers can be helpful. Or
you may decide that now is the time to flip the coin.
