Hiring someone who is a poor fit is the wrong decision, however skilled they are. They rarely reach full performance or engagement and often leave, triggering another costly search. The source notes that traditional interviews predict future success by only 10%. This 60-minute behavioral interviewing training shows a better approach.
Behavioral interviewing asks what candidates actually did rather than what they say they would do. You'll learn to define job requirements and critical skills, align them with your culture, and use behavioral questions to assess both ability and fit.
The session also covers where evaluation errors come from, acceptable and unacceptable questions, and how to build a planned, start-to-finish hiring process.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
New hires begin judging their decision from day one, and the source notes that 70% decide whether to stay within their first six months. Finding the right talent and the right personal, cultural and social fit is critical. This webinar gives you tools to improve your new-hire process and build stronger teams.
It suits leaders, managers, supervisors, HR professionals and organizational development professionals.
