Overview

The CVs look great, but can the candidates actually do the job? Will they thrive in your organisation? How can you tell if they really have the experience, technical skills and personal qualities you need?

Choosing the right candidate is a crucial decision for you as a manager and for your organisation. Making the wrong choice can be costly and demotivating, and bad for both the candidate and the rest of your team.

When talent is scarce, it's even more important to attract and recruit the right people.

This course will give you practical tips and introduce you to a range of structured methods for conducting fair and successful interviews. You'll learn how to get to know the real person, and make fair and comparable assessments about each candidate so you can be sure you're making the right choice.

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.

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.
