Assessments: The good, The bad, and the Ugly

Overview:

In this dynamic course we will look at the best practices surrounding conducting internal investigations.

Why you should attend: Do you deliberately go out and hire poor performers? If not, then why are there so many of them in our organizations today. Misleading resumes, poor management interviewing skills, professional trained interviewers, poor cultural match, and poor job requirements all lead to this problem of getting the "wrong people on the bus."This workshop looks at assessments as a cure to many if not most of these problems. We take a hard and realistic look at the assessment industry in general and the most common assessment tools being used in the market today.
