Event Name: Good Hiring Practices: Learn how to ask great questions & read basic body language signals Competency: Human Capital Management Description: Successful companies are made up of great employees, so why not hire great employees? Hiring and training employees is an expensive venture. Be sure to hire the right person for the right position. Hiring the right person is about more than skills and abilities; it is about finding the right combination of skills, attitude, and fit for your organization's culture. Participants will learn the how to select the most qualified job candidate by applying the ever-popular behavioral approach to interviewing.  This method, developed by industrial psychologist Dr. Paul Green, directs you to probe the job applicant for specific examples of their past.  The reason is simple: The best predictor of a job applicant's future work behavior is their past work behavior.   In addition to interviewing techniques, interviewers think candidates who slouch are bored or arrogant and decide to turn them down. But, how much should we trust our impressions of candidates' body language during interviews?  We're all naturally able to pick up on nonverbal cues. Though often useful, non-verbal cues can be misleading. Understanding body language isn't an exact science. In this program, we will learn some of the basic clues to positive interest and attitude.   Good hiring practices will save your company time and money as you will be recruiting and hiring the right candidates. Your hiring managers will benefit from this program as it prepares them to seek out that great candidate and make sure they are a fit for your company.
