A bad hire costs an organization significant time, money, and team morale, yet many managers conduct interviews based on unstructured conversations and "gut feelings." This course is designed to transform managers into highly effective, objective talent assessors. Participants will learn how to design and sequence targeted questions, apply competency-based and behavioral interviewing techniques (such as the STAR method), and accurately evaluate candidate fit. Crucially, the program tackles the psychology of hiring, providing practical tools to recognize and reduce unconscious bias, ensuring a fair, equitable, and successful selection process.
By the end of this 1-day course, participants will be able to:
Apply behavioral interviewing techniques to predict future performance based on past behavior.
Design and sequence structured interview questions tied directly to the core competencies of the role.
Evaluate candidates using objective scoring rubrics to accurately assess cultural alignment and "culture add."
Identify and mitigate common unconscious biases that derail fair hiring decisions.
