Overview

Are you getting the right information from your screening calls? Are enough of your candidates getting the jobs you present them for? Do you know the difference between competency interviewing and behavioural based questioning?

Just because they are technically competent, keen and available, doesn’t make them the right fit. Your time needs to be spent wisely and candidates both in and out of work can be a major source of information regarding your market. Remember a stunning candidate will still help open doors for you.

This course aims to give your consultants a more transparent, controlled and structured approach to candidate qualification and management, ultimately resulting in improved billings and a significantly improved candidate to placement ratio.

  • Fine-tune your interviewing skills both face to face and over the phone.
  • Understand the basis & structure of a well-planned interview.
  • Learn how to use behavioural based questioning and conduct competency based interviews.
  • Confidently gain rapport and uncover the candidate’s true motivators
  • Analyse candidate information to plan effective questioning.
  • Comfortably & quickly screen the candidate so you spend time with the right individuals and build long term contacts.
  • Gain the confidence to know when “it’s a fit”.
  • Consistently reduce candidate drop out levels including controlling the counter offer.
  • Learn how to manage and control the recruitment process.
  • Understand the top 6 legislations to safeguard you, your candidates and your clients.
  • Compile a portfolio of interview skills and techniques to adapt to any situation.
