Recruitment and Selection

This two-day workshop aims to explain what needs to be in place for successful recruitment and selection. Participants will be shown how to analyse job requirements and develop an effective person specification, effectively shortlist candidates for interview and justify their selection and outline how to implement the use of person specifications for recruitment in their workplace.

In addition, participants will have the opportunity to plan a competency based interview (CBI) using a provided structure and write examples of competency based questions

They will be able to conduct a competency based interview, receive constructive feedback and identify individual development during the practical sessions, leading to the ability to structure and plan a CBI interview for a role they would recruit for in the workplace.

The workshop will describe how to assess candidate performance and make effective assessment decisions with an outline of the expert advice available from HR.

Finally, participants will be able to continue their learning by creating a specific and personal action plan for implementation in the workplace.

On completion of this workshop you will be able to:

• Practise the stages of the recruitment and selection process

• Use the information from the interview to evaluate and select the best candidate for the position
