Interviewing and Hiring the Right People

Recorded Session
75 Minutes

Hiring the right person the first time saves time, money and frustration. This 75-minute interviewing and hiring training walks through the process in six steps: understanding your organization's culture, conducting a job analysis, developing behavior-based interview questions, recruiting, interviewing and selection, and onboarding.

You'll learn to describe your culture and hire people who fit it, write effective job descriptions and postings, set selection standards and find new recruiting approaches.

The session also covers how to prepare for and run consistent, goal-directed interviews, screen applicants, follow legal guidelines, make the job offer and create an onboarding program that works.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

Rushing a hire or focusing only on technical skills without considering culture fit leads to early turnover, which costs time and money and frustrates employees and managers. This session takes an organizational view of hiring and highlights common mistakes.

It suits office assistants and managers, administrators, managers and supervisors, HR professionals, hiring managers, recruiters and business owners.
