Hiring for Performance

THE AGILITY-FOCUSED INTERVIEWING APPROACH™ TO HIRING THE RIGHT CANDIDATE EVERY TIME

 

A survey of 4000 employers in Singapore revealed that they all have made a significant number of bad hiring decisions in their organizations – ranging from 10 percent to a whopping 50 percent!

Some of the reasons why organisations end up with so many bad hires include:

      • The need to fill the job quickly – 43%
      • Don’t know why they made a bad hire – 26%
      • Insufficient talent intelligence – 22%
      • Difficult to go through applications due to lack of recruiters to review applications – 10%
      • Didn’t check references – 9%

In addition, the trouble with traditional hiring approaches is that they are too rigid. Popular interview approaches such as Competency-based interviews and Performance-based interviews tend to lack flexibility in the way follow-up questions are asked and how answers are processed, and therefore result in missed opportunities to identify the right candidates, resulting in the high number of poor hires and misfits.

Based on the CAAP® High Performance Model (Culture, Attitude, Aptitude, Personality), the Agility-focused Interviewing Approach™ introduces flexibility and adaptability into your interview sessions, so that you will be able to side-step the shortcomings of traditional hiring approaches and maximize your chances of identifying and selecting the right talent for your organization every time – saving you time, money and heartaches.
