Interviewing Right First Time

Have you ever felt that recruiting a new member of staff is a bit too much of a step of faith, or felt, with the benefit of hindsight, that a particular appointment has not delivered all you hoped for?

Or perhaps you’ve been in the middle of the interview and have been unsure of what questions to ask or have even been unsure of what a successful candidate would look like?

If so, then this course is for you.

This course helps learners to:

• identify the steps necessary to prepare effectively for the recruitment process
• gather quality evidence on the abilities of a candidate by using behavioural interviewing techniques
• structure the interview to make effective use of time; and ensure the right questions are asked and correct information relayed
• evaluate the collected evidence to make an objective decision on whether or not to appoint
• convey a positive, professional image of both themselves and the organisation they represent.

Throughout this highly interactive course there are opportunities to practice and test the skills you are learning.
