Effective Job Interviewing

Synopsis:

The most valuable asset most organisations have is their staff. Employing the right people in the right positions who can effectively work together is vital to the success of any business. If someone is employed who either doesn't have the necessary competence for the position or who does not fit in with their colleagues then it can be difficult to rectify the situation. Better then to get the right people in the first place.
