To be a successful Staffing Manager at this organization, you will be expected to motivate your staff to perform at their best on a day-to-day basis. At some point during your interview, your interviewer will be looking to determine if you have experience in employee engagement. As you discuss ways to engage and motivate your staff, don't hesitate to share a specific example that impacted employee engagement. If you do not have a specific example, share your understanding of how to increase employee engagement to prove that you will successfully lead the entire staffing team at this organization.

"As a supervisor in my current role, it was my job to evaluate the attendance and performance of my staff. I noticed that we had significantly more sick day call-ins on Mondays and Fridays. After reviewing this data, I also reviewed our work logs for Mondays and Fridays and found that we had fewer HR inquiries on these days. I decided to pilot an alternative work schedule and allow our employees to take Monday or Friday off and start a new 4/10 schedule. The employees were thrilled, and our unexcused absences decreased significantly."
