After an interview, have you ever wondered if you uncovered the candidate's true potential? Wouldn't it be great if you could transform your interviewing skills to ensure you're hiring the best person for each role? Welcome to The Hire Calling Podcast, where Pete Newsome and Ricky will show you how to do just that!
They are flipping the script on traditional interviewing practices and focusing on a conversational 80/20 ratio, where the candidate does most of the talking. To truly understand the candidate's capabilities, they will guide you through the art of asking the right questions. You'll also better understand the delicate balance between structured and unstructured interviews. In addition to addressing bias and discrimination in the hiring process head-on, Pete and Ricky advise conducting interviews legally and fairly.
As the episode concludes, they discuss soft skills, cultural fit, and hiring for attitude over skill set alone. Lastly, Ricky and Pete share how feedback can be a powerful tool for improving your interviewing process. For every HR professional, hiring manager, or recruiter looking to improve their hiring process, tune in, soak up insights, and revolutionize your interviewing skills!
