Selection Interviewing Skills

Description

This DVD will equip anyone involved with selection interviewing to prepare for, conduct and assess interviews professionally and incisively, ensuring that the right candidate is selected and avoiding the high costs associated with poor selection.

Scripted by a subject expert and trainer, and with an accompanying Trainer's Guide, this innovative training DVD is comprised of short clips which allow the trainer complete flexibility and control to intervene at any point and jump around to relevant scenes. Scenes demonstrate good practice and bad practice and cover the following areas:

an introduction to selection interviewing skills
preparing as an interviewer
exploring and verifying information
reviewing and comparing candidates
selling the job to the right candidate
the interviewees' experience.

Unlike many similar products, this DVD is not based around a drama. Instead, each scene is firmly centred round a set of key learning points which helps to focus the viewer's attention and consolidate their learning. It represents real employees in an environment which is modern yet neutral and can be used by any type of organisation.
