Candidate concern practice
Clarify a concern before offering information.
How to use it
Use a fictional case first. Replace assumptions with verified, authorized information before professional use. Keep real candidate information in your approved systems. Complete each field, identify the next action and review the plan with the appropriate owner.
Completed example: the reasoning
A shift concern needs an accurate schedule answer, not a repeated compensation pitch.
See the completed worksheet example
- Candidate concern in their words
- The candidate says the travel pattern is unsuitable.
- Clarifying question
- Is the concern overnight travel, total frequency or another stated job condition?
- Acknowledgment
- That is a material condition, and it is reasonable to clarify it before proceeding.
- Verified information available
- The approved role requires two overnight trips monthly; no alternative is approved.
- Gap requiring an owner
- The manager confirms whether any schedule flexibility is genuinely available.
- Permission-based next step
- If the condition cannot fit, close respectfully rather than repeat the pay pitch.
