Did you know that 44% of hiring managers regret their last hire according to recruitment firm Hudson, and, according to LinkedIn, 65% of candidates decline to go further in the interview process (or just ghost you) due to a poor candidate experience?
No one likes to spend time interviewing candidates, and very few organisations invest in training hiring managers how to do it properly. Yet this is one of the most important skills people managers need.
This masterclass will give you practical 'hiring hacks' to increase the effectiveness of your interviewing skills, decrease your stress around hiring and provide a better candidate experience through the interview process.
You’ll interview with more confidence after completing this workshop, saving time and money as a result.
This course is part four of a four-part series on recruiting engineers. Learn more about this series.
