4. Interview with Peter Kolev, chief of Human Resources
1.What are the characteristics of a good employee, Mr Kolev?
As an employer, you have to recognize the qualities of your good employees as they are
an asset to any organization. It is always a challenge to retain those good employees. You
also want to hire those with the best attributes, people who have the potential to become
good employees in the future, even to become the company talents.
2. What is the most essensial thing about employee’s personality?
First, the employees must have the ability to communicate well and express themselves
in a clear manner, whether in writing or speaking. Inaccurate/inappropriate
communication between employees can cause many problems to the company.
3.Shoud every employee be resposible and self-disciplined?
As well as being communicative, a good employee never hesitates of taking
responsibility or a more responsible position. She/he is also ready to work beyond the
call of duty in order to meet goals or to solve problems, even if the job in discussion is
not one of the regular works she/he is usually assigned.
4.What about hard-working?
When it comes to hard-working one has to keep reminding oneself about the importance
and significance of working hard as an employee. Also, an employee must be decisive
and efffective learner. Employees must be willing to learn new things and give their best.
Many companies consist of teams. Any company requires an effective team effort. An
employer who can contribute is an ideal worker.
5.Are co-workers’ relantionships of importance? Is it essential to help others and be
polite?
Helping is a factor, too. An employee must establish friendly relations with the co-
workers.
A good employee is honest about his work and qualifications. Self criticism and willing to
receive feedback is essential to become a good learner.
Being friendly and approachable will never harm. A good employee greets her co-
workers with a ‘good morning’, says little courteous things like ‘thank you’ and ‘you are
welcome’. These things may appear insignificant but go a long way in establishing the
person as favorite employee.
6.To sum up…
Every boss loves punctual and disciplined employees. Time is money. Coming late to
office, taking unnecessary breaks, procrastinating and leaving earlier than the usual
hours cost money to the company. No employer will ever appreciate this.
