Your recruiting, interviewing and selection process affects every part of your organization's performance, including profitability. This strategic interviewing and selection webinar gives managers a practical, step-by-step approach to identifying candidates with the competencies the job requires.
You'll start by defining job criteria and preparing for the interview, including reviewing applications and resumes and planning questions in advance. You'll then learn how to set the right atmosphere, structure effective questions and run a behavioral interview that looks for past behaviors rather than traits.
The session finishes with a complete interview format, tips for team and panel interviews and note-taking, and strategic recruiting: what candidates expect from employers and what they look for in a job beyond pay.
An untrained interviewer often predicts job performance little better than chance, relying on first impressions, friendly chats or random questions. Poor hires cost productivity, quality and customer satisfaction, plus termination, legal and replacement costs, while great hires lift performance.
The session suits HR professionals new to the field, experienced HR staff wanting a refresher, and line managers who want a proven method they can apply right away.
