LO19 - Shortlisting Candidates and Interview Techniques
Course Overview
This course is provided by Learning4Business. Having completed this course you should be able identify a pool of high quality candidates by using assessments and an objective shortlisting process and conduct a successful recruitment interview.
A long list of potential job candidates is, in many ways, a nice problem for a manager. What is not so nice, however, is the prospect of making mistakes in the shortlisting process, and so losing the best candidate. Having achieved the learning outcomes of this course you should be able to avoid this problem and ensure that you are left with a genuine list of the best candidates. You will also be able to organise and conduct effective recruitment interviews calculated to identify the best candidate from the recruitment shortlist.
For any organisation or company its people are its lifeblood; finding and hiring the right people, however, is a major challenge, given the competition for staff with the right skills, knowledge and attitude. For this reason it is vital that any person with a responsibility for, or a role within, staff recruitment is highly competent to perform that function. Failure to ensure this competence will result in an inability to attract the right people, and/or a failure to identify those people at the time of recruitment.
The course is divided into 4 sections covering the following areas:
- operating an effective shortlisting process
- designing an effective job application form
- using tests and assessments
- conducting effective interviews
