Overview
Take the stress out of recruiting the right people. This
workshop is for managers who need to carry out recruitment
and selection interviews. Recruiting the right people is a
costly business and needs skill and careful planning.
Managers are expected to make a decision about someone’s
potential to carry out a job in a short time frame. It is
therefore essential that interviewers have the skills to

a properly informed decision.
This workshop will help them develop an approach that is
productive; structured and fair that will identify the best
candidate.
