What makes this training so effective?
It's practical.
If it isn't practical and easy, recruiters likely won't use it. Our training doesn't spend an hour telling them "why" selecting the right people is so important; they know that. It focuses on the "how" and is
loaded with one- and two-page tools and templates to make interviewing and selecting the right people easy.
It's customized to your hiring criteria and recruiting culture.
We customize the training ahead of time to focus in on your competencies by leveraging your insights into why people struggle, why people quit,
and why people are declined after phone screens and interviews. We include simple handouts that help establish the "answers" we're listening for,
so that we leave with common, better-defined hiring standards.
We teach a methodology that works.
We don't simply share a book full of our favorite interview questions. We teach attendees how to evaluate candidates by leveraging a methodology that's easy to
remember and use, and moves them away from unreliable gut feelings, unsubstantiated biases, and canned questions.
