Chapters
It turns out we're not born great interviewers. We learn how to be great interviewers. And in a labor market where top talent has so many choices, we need to not only be great at interviewing to make sure we select great talent, but also be great because top talent is interviewing us too. Hi, I'm John Blastolica from Recruiting Toolbox. I'm partnering with Social Talent to bring you content that will help you interview and select the right talent for your organization. My team and I have trained over 10,000 interviewers from over 30 countries working with world class companies to help them improve how they interview and select with an eye on speed, quality and diversity. Join me to learn how to make sure you're interviewing against clearly defined objective hiring criteria. This will help you reduce bias and focus on performance. I'll share a framework for evaluating candidates so that you know how to fairly evaluate the whole candidate and leverage interview questions that help you go beyond just learning about their past experience and instead gather evidence to predict whether this candidate will be successful at your company on your team. And of course, I'll share a bunch of sample questions. Questions focused on hard skills, soft skills, achievements and intrinsic motivators, all critical to predicting success. And I'll teach you how to build your own questions as well. Join me on the Social Talent platform to become a licensed interviewer today.
