We Build A Knowledge Bridge So Managers Will Learn:
- How to define what success will look like prior to recruiting, interviewing, and hiring so that Hiring Managers can create accurate, compelling job scopes.
- How to translate your job descriptions into specific behaviors and hiring criteria that will align interviewers on the success predictors for an open position.
- Validate past performance through proper interviewing so you can hire a top performer vs. a top candidate.
- How to conduct reliable and accurate phone interviews and screen culture-fit in the first conversation.
- How to set up a quality and structured interview process that is consistent across all hiring managers. A good hiring process with effective recruiting techniques, the right interviewers, focused on the right criteria, and an engaging experience.
- How to create and leverage not the most commonly practiced behavioral questions but instead learn how to create best-practice accomplishment-driven, situational and culture-fit questions to uncover evidence of depth of experience, knowledge, cognitive ability, motivators, past performance, and future potential – all predictors of future success.
- How to objectively evaluate candidates who align to your positions and culture.
- How to address judgments, unreliable gut feelings, and eliminate biases.
- How to write quality feedback that objectively/legally justifies your hiring decision.
- How to create a great candidate experience no matter what the outcome.
A day of hard work
Participants will have the opportunity to critique real job postings, create Talent Profiles, conduct mock interviews, roleplay, write interview questions and learn to evaluate talent against Talent Scorecards with the goal of connecting past performance to future performance in order to make an accurate hiring decision based on facts not gut feelings.
Built the way you want to do business
Prior to the training we conduct an online survey with leadership & hiring manager informational interviews to learn – first hand – their skills level and what they need from this workshop so that they leave with practical, actionable strategies and tactics that they WANT to use.
