Recruitment and Personnel Selection Course

What would you say about a job interview in a locker room? Discover how you can easily recruit the right people using the right method.

The vast experience of the Human Resources professionals with whom we’ve worked on this online course proved that interviewing the candidates in unexpected places or situations is a valuable way of testing their real skills and personality, more effective than the classical job interview that could never give such genuine, real and unexpected information about the candidates.

One of our collaborators, the HR Manager of an oil company, recounted us about a job interview she had once for the position of Human Resources Manager in a factory with 350 employees, mostly unskilled workers. She went to the interview at the appointed time but she had to wait for 2 hours to start the interview that took place in the workers’ locker.

At the end of the interview, the recruiters told her she was not the right person for the job, although she had dealt very well with the situation and had perfectly answered the questions they asked her.

And here comes the interesting part. Actually, she got the job but how she was managing the negative response was the final test. Remember: The job interview or the testing is not finished when the candidate gets the so-called final result!

What was the purpose of that interview? The management was looking for a committed person, determined not to take a NO for granted, a person that doesn’t give up easily. There had been tested the candidate's strength of mind and ability to cope with difficult situations, to keep 350 men workers under control, to rein them in and make herself respected.

Are you interested in finding more on how you can easily recruit the right persons no matter how difficult the job is and how you can always master the job interview? If your answer is yes, we can show you how, because we know you can do it too.

We’ve gathered only certified knowledge and endorsed techniques based on years of valuable experience in human resources and we share it with you through this online course.
