You are recruiting, have identified potential new employees and invited them to come for an interview. The interview is the opportunity for you to both find out more about each other. As an employer you will be aiming to find out more about the person; their skills, attitudes and behaviours, and whether they are right for your business.
But remember the candidate will also be assessing you and your business and whether it is right for them!
Dorset Growth Hub are offering a free workshop in October – join Debbie Greenwood to find out all about interviewing the right way. The session will look at planning an interview – and also at the legal compliance that you need to be aware of.
Subjects to be covered include:
Planning an interview.
Identifying key skills and behaviours to rate candidates.
Setting questions to prompt responses to identify the right candidate.
Rating candidates fairly. Unconscious Bias.
Putting candidates at their ease.
Legal considerations when hiring and interviewing including receiving and storing information.
Employment rights, when and how do they kick in and how long are applicants protected.
Wednesday 19th October, 09:30 to 12 noon, at The Exchange in Sturminster Newton. FREE event, but registrations online here.
