Course Description
Every manager knows that to be successful, a company needs to build teams of employees who are the top in their field, work
well together, and are happy in the company. However, it is often difficult for managers to find and hire the best people.
In this course, you will practice techniques that will empower you to do just that—to hire the best candidate every time through
strategies that will improve your success in interviewing. This can reduce or even eliminate significant turnover and allow
your company to focus instead on achieving production goals.
Course Objective: You will examine guidelines and strategies for making effective hiring decisions.
Target Student: Managers and supervisors who need practical interviewing skills.
Prerequisites: It is extremely important that you check with your Human Resources department to become aware of both your company's hiring
policies and procedures as well as the legalities involved in the interviewing process.
Delivery Method: Instructor led, group-paced, classroom-delivery learning model with structured hands-on activities.
