Recruitment and Selection processes are a necessity but they are time consuming, costly and potentially stressful. Interview panelists, as well as having their day jobs to do, feel the added pressure to make a wise choice of candidate from among the ‘others’. There’s a lot at stake. Our training leads delegates through all of the processes needed to arrive at that wise choice; one that both the recruiting manager and the candidate will be happy to live with for some time to come; one that brings knowledge, skills and experience relevant to the future needs of the organisation; one that has been arrived at by a legal, fair and transparent means.
It is much too risky to be ‘self taught’ and so more and more organisations are investing in our training to give interviewers the thorough grounding they need for the competency based approach to recruitment interviewing.
