Competency Based Interview n Selection Techniques

Course details

The war for talents has been waging for years. There are no signs of ceasefire but rather in certain sectors and industries, the tension is far from over. So what now that you have candidates waiting to be interviewed by you and because of the talent war you select whoever that knocks on your door? It is an all-time dilemma.

Jim Collins in his book,” Good to Great” used a great analogy of getting up a bus to exemplify the importance of hiring. His research suggested that great companies first decide who then what. That means that the quality of the hire is more important that what you want the candidate to do (job description is baseline). Usually with quality hire, they can definitely perform more than expected and beyond the job description. With wrong hire, it will cost at least 9 months of loss productivity and other associated costs.

Hire right is important but how?
