Overview

Successful recruitment, and, consequently, higher retention, results from a well-planned and effectively-managed interview process.
This interviewing skills course focuses on interviewers, helping to develop and improve their interview techniques. Attention to detail in the interview process is a vital ingredient to making a successful decision.
You will learn how to identify the exact type of person you are seeking to satisfactorily undertake the position. Much detail is given to planning and preparation and you will have several opportunities to carry out sample interviews. You are invited to bring an example of a job description with you.
The practicality of the course enables you to develop interviewing techniques through many live sessions. Relevance to up-to-date legislation is well considered along with an understanding of how interviewing fits into the overall recruitment process.
The course includes preparation techniques as well as listening and interpretation skills. The course also covers the issues of recording the interview and making the right decision.
This Successful Interviewing course is available throughout the UK.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
