If I owned a business I wouldn't bother with standard interviews and resumes. They're such a waste of time and really teach you nothing good about the person, except how good they are at lying to you on the spot.

What would you do
Since it's all a moot anyhow being that I'll likely never own a business, I'll say that I'd try to spend the day with them doing non work related stuff to get a feel for who they really were, then if I thought they felt like a good fit on that front, I would ask them for hands on demonstrations of the skills they will actually be using to perform their job...and not every job under the roof, their job that they were hired for.
