    Performance-based Hiring is an end-to-end, four-step process for hiring top talent. It is the only validated methodology that integrates sourcing, screening, interviewing, and recruiting into a seamless approach based on how top people look for, compare, and accept one position over another. The contend that a hiring process problem exists whenever a hiring manager needs to see more than four different candidates to make a hiring decision. This is typically due to a job that has not been properly defined, sourcing or recruiting problems, or weak interviewing skills. Regardless of the cause, recruiters react by scrambling about presenting as many reasonably competent people as they can find in the hope that one sticks. Despite that performance based hiring is a business process for hiring top talent employee but all the technique based upon assumption that the demand talent is far greater that the supply. In order to constructs my professional identity in a performance-based manner in any job I applied for, I have to ask myself this question. Is this a job I want? If not, I will be disappointed no matter how much I get paid. If the answer to that question is yes, I can go ahead.

    According to Performance based Hiring, of course, I need to have the technical and basic skills as my background to find a right job that is match with my background. Also, I need to pull some strings to ensure I made the right decision. After I found an opening job, I need to do my research on the company I am applying to and also tailor my resume to match the job description. Doing this kind of the research can make me have more confidence for the interview. And this might increase my chance of been hire.
