   The right interview questions can help you assess a candidate's hard skills, behavioral intelligence, and soft skills.

7. Send a job offer and onboard your new locker attendant

   After that, you can create an onboarding schedule for a new locker attendant. Human Resources and the hiring manager should complete Employee Action Forms.
