Competency-Based Recruitment Interviewing
Who Should Attend
This training will be of great benefit to those who are new to Competency-Based Recruitment Interviewing and also to those who have had some experience but feel the need to hone their skills again.
Overview
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.
Outcomes
As a result of their active participation in this training, delegates will gain:

Vitally important knowledge of the Legal Framework that applies to recruitment interviewing and how to comply with it.
Experience of planning an efficient and effective Recruitment exercise.
Insight into how shortlisting criteria can be legitimately applied to reduce the applicants to a manageable number for interview.
The skills needed to organise and manage an interview panel as it structures and carries out competency-based interviews right through to candidate selection.
Interactive listening skills and questioning strategies that will find the strongest candidate and the next best reserve.
Techniques that take some of the potential stress out of the task.
