Most organizations would rather try to hire superstar employees and avoiding toxic workers. However, business research conducted clearly proves that instead of chasing the top performers, firms will be better served by converting the toxic workers into average performers. Around 5% of toxic workers even get terminated eventually. In cases where workers were lost due to toxicity, replacing the same and the opportunity cost of work days lost results in losses worth more than twelve thousand US dollars. On the other hand a figure of a mere five thousand odd dollars get saved when superstar employees get hired. Thus it is essential to hire the right candidates and screen them for toxicity during the interview process. Over-confidence and self regard are traits typically present among such candidates and they must be avoided for final selection.
