Roll Out (continued) If candidate says anything other than I’d like the opportunity, then reply: “<Name>, here are the next steps as I see them. “ • “I’d like you to go home tonight and speak with your significant other, spouse, and or support system.”“Your family has to have your back not be on it.” • “I’d like to set you for a final interview tomorrow at 10 AM, at that time you’ll need to come back with the mindset of separating yourself from the other finalists that we have decided to bring back.” • “If in fact you and (branch manager) both agree that this is your next profession/career, and only if: I’d like you to have the resources to pay for the online testing course”. OR: • “I’d like you to go home tonight and speak with your significant other, spouse, and or support system.”“Your family has to have your back not be on it.” • “<Name>, Our management team will be meeting this evening to discuss the candidates we’ve met this week to determine who we would like to bring back for a final interview with (branch manager).
