Hybels wrote about the 3 “C’s” in Courageous Leadership. He said you should hire someone with character, competency, and chemistry. Many people overlook the “chemistry” part in hiring.
- If we don’t enjoy each other, we won’t likely do a good job together. That’s why we ask questions to see if a person has a good sense of humor.
- Tell us one of your most embarrassing moments.
- What is one of your favorite jokes?
- What is one of the funniest things that you’ve seen in the church world?
- These questions can be a little tough on the spot.
Even if a person is nervous and can’t immediately come up with a funny joke, in an hour interview, he or she will certainly show signs of having a sense of humor or not. At the end of the interview, if you don’t enjoy the person at all, you might look elsewhere.
