By emphasizing candidate’s skills in the interview and using skill assessments that test for specific competencies new employees will need to succeed in their role, you’ll be able to double the effectiveness of your interview process and choose the candidate most likely to succeed.
In Candidate Evaluation, an engaging and interactive workshop provided by Jobs for the Future (JFF) and facilitated by the Institute for Workforce Excellence, you’ll learn how to:
- Avoid losing qualified talent in the screening process
- Craft interview questions to assess candidates’ occupational and foundational skills
- Select and design assessments to evaluate candidates’ skills
By evaluating candidates based on their skills, you distill the interviewing and evaluation processes to its essentials and are more likely to find and select your next great employee.
Note: this workshop builds upon the knowledge learned in Attracting the Right Talent: Skillful Talent Series 101 workshop and is required to be completed before signing up for this workshop on Candidate Evaluation.
