Sainsburys' senior executive
Overview
The gains in on line technology to improve the
speed and efficiency of recruitment have not been accompanied with improvements
in selection content. Applicants continue to complete on line application forms and career resumes helped by websites like www.fakeresume.com established with the explicit purpose of helping applicants manipulate their credentials. Applicants, armed with the "great answers to tough interview questions", arrive at interviews often better prepared than the recruiting manager. If your organisation is serious about the "war for talent", then robust recruitment is the first battle. The decisions you make in selecting who to bring in (and who not to) will shape your organisation's leadership capability.
What We Do
We conduct end-to-end reviews of recruitment processes to identify the opportunities
to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your selection systems. Our
expertise in validation and statistical modelling identifies how best to attract,
short-list and recruit in a cost effective way to optimise the in take of talent.
We design on line interview tool kits to help line managers prepare for and conduct
robust interviews, incorporating powerful questions to identify those candidates
with the right mix of skills and values, rather than those who "talk a good
interview". Our on line systems make it easy for recruiting managers to zero
in on those areas that will drive role success, review a choice of different
interview formats depending on the experience base of short-listed candidates,
and create a tailored interview protocol.
We utilise biodata, the structured way of streamlining application forms and
cvs to pinpoint the specific pattern of bio-psychographical factors predictive
of future performance. Drawing on our expertise in biodata design and validation
we create a "success profile" as the blue print of robust and defensible selection
practice and implement assessment processes to short-list candidates.
