Interview Skills

Poor Hiring Decisions Cost Your Organization Time and Money!

Hire and retain the right candidates with a comprehensive interview process

Hiring the wrong person for a job position can cost an organization 3x their salary! Not to mention the loss of time, resources and impact to others on the team.

One key challenge is many hiring managers haven’t been formally trained to develop their interview skills or hiring process. As a result, they may resort to the “seat of the pants” approach, asking whatever questions they feel are sufficient for the job interview.

While this approach may work in some cases, it isn’t likely covering all the important aspects to the interview process.

This program teaches hiring managers the key factors behind a successful interview process, and how to better qualify and match the right candidate for the job.
