Try to gauge how often he feels meeting are needed and for how long those meeting should go. What does he aim to accomplish when meeting and communicating with staff. Is he technical and does he like to remain technical? Will he be performing any technical work in terms of taking on projects or assisting team? What should one expect from him as a manger in terms of managements style... For instance, I expect a amanger to assign me tasks, clear roadblocks and provide additional clarity as questions and issues arise, not pull up a chair and sit with me or want to know every detail of the steps. Involed his ideas and thoughts on project planning and mangement. A good manager should have a competant and trusted technical team that he relies upon to perform the work to the best of their abilities and his functiona is to communicate to upper managment and his team and manage the bigger picture outside of the sheer technical aspects. - David > Give the person a situational questions to answer that would be typical of > the environment the person would be faced with.
