Motivation is a way to use psychology.

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Companies want to hire highly motivated persons and the way of motivating is an important thing in the process. It's interesting to know about the process, what makes a person obligate in the job and company, what offers the position to show the skills. This is one very good psychological method to make young and dynamic person interest about the job in some company. "Come to show your claws" is very good and striking slogan in the job advertisement.

 The thing about the group interview is to make competition between the applicants, and also show the things, like how the person acts in the case, where the competition is extremely hard. And this interview method is used to show the applicants, that the place is very wanted. When we are thinking about the jobs and careers, we must realize, that the employer has their own interests in the case, and it's not the same, who would come to the workplace. Many times the organization would give sometimes very expensive training for those people, who are coming to work in the company, and of course, those employers want, that the workers would stay in their firm.

If a person comes to the company and then starts to look for the new job, that causes costs for that firm. And at the same time, there is one thing, what the people don't normally think. If some employee would be invaluable, that would cause the costs for the company, if the employee would find out that thing. If some process in the production depends on the personal skills and will of some employee, would the benefit for the company, that this employee would not know about it.

When we are thinking about the process, what mission is to make the employee obligation to the company, one of the most effective ways is to let that person know, that there were hundreds of the applications for the position, what makes this thing very motivated. The motivation would base to the fear, that if the works are not made correctly, the next person is waiting behind the door for taking the job.

And if there were 180 persons, who were interviewed would that feel good in the mind of the person, who was hired. This makes good for self-esteem, that there were even hundreds of the interviewed, and this employee is the person, who was hired. And it would make person first proud, but then in the mind would come the fear, what if this person causes disappointment for the persons, who were hired for the position. Here I don't talk about any specific workplace, and this text is meant for the common thoughts for the job-seekers and persons, who want to know about the psychology of the motivation processes.
