    Can they be courteous, friendly, a team player who is willing to pitch in with a great attitude? Can they show up consistantly for work on time? Look to job history and ability to committ to an employer for an extended period of time. Ask if you can speak with their prior employer and how they left that work relationship. This will tell you alot.

    It's all in the personality and the attitude. Do they have good work ethic, and are they willing to learn?

    It amazes me how little work ethic exists in a lot of younger people these days. They want a job where they have to do as little work as possible. They have horrible people skills, and not a lot of common sense.

    The reason I'm saying this is that for someone who does have a good personality, and does have good work ethic and is willing to learn and to work - you're almost guaranteed not only the job, but to be a rising star at work.

    I'll hire a person with less skills and a great attitude over a person with better skills and a bad attitude any day of the week.
