What's On

Hunting for right talents remains a challenging task for HR staff, as they strive to spot the best candidate in a sea of applications. Job interviews always do not reflect the true ability of the candidates, who are usually well-prepared for standard questions and common tests. Therefore, it is critical for HR and hiring managers to know the techniques of recruiting and attracting the right fits for their organizations.

This workshop is designed to elevate your interviewing skills and effectiveness on selecting the right candidates for your company, helping you:
• explore the common traps in recruiting and interviewing candidates, and ways to avoid them
• review the elements of a well-structured recruitment process, and align on the roles of HR and hiring managers
• practice targeted questioning, listening and observation skills to identify evidence of competence and suitability of a candidate
• identify ways to create a favorable impression for your company to attract talents

Outline:
• Common bias during the selection process
• Evidence-based interview technique
• Effective questions
• Ineffective questions and how to avoid it
• What does the interviewer usually miss?
• How do I know the candidate is a right fit?
• How to structure your interview process in an effective way?
• How to attract talents without over selling it?
• Mini practice

Target Audience:
HR and hiring managers/executives, and anyone who needs to recruit or interview job candidates.
