Course description

This session is about interviewing skills. Why is it important to be a skilled interviewer? Because after you’ve screened résumés and applications, conducting face-to-face interviews is the next essential step to help you determine which of the qualified candidates is actually the best person for the job. Furthermore, when you make good hiring decisions, you, your department, and the organization benefit. When you make poor choices, everyone suffers. That makes interviewing an important part of your job. You need to know how to plan and conduct effective interviews in order to learn all you possibly can about job candidates so that you can make the best hiring decisions.
