Test Candidates Creativity

Perhaps the worst thing about a CV is how tick-a-box it is. Listing skills, creativity and ideas is not the same as demonstrating them; it’s about "know-how," not "know of." The candidate you want will almost certainly be someone who relishes the chance to show you what they can do outside of their résumé. As the employer you can go further. Give them tasks, ask them questions, bring them in to meet your team and see how they approach a certain problem. When you do make an offer, a résumé will be valuable in justifying it, but it should be supporting documentation, not the measure of a candidate.
