The aim of this one-day workshop is to provide a practical and pragmatic guide and structure to support effective recruitment and selection decisions across all industries.

This workshop addresses the leadership behaviour of People Development on our Leadership Competencies Framework.

Description

Facilitator - Kate Logan

The costs associated with making a poor selection decision can be substantial. Some of these costs can include business disruption, customer dissatisfaction, re-advertising, re-training, and downtime. Often these costs are under-estimated. Therefore, investing in a thorough process which reduces your risk of 'getting it wrong' is simply good business practice.

As the labour market for talent remains tight, understanding that a recruitment process is a public relations exercise for your business is fundamental. A poor process is talked about in the market, negatively impacting on your employer profile and reducing the number of quality candidates when recruiting.

This workshop qualifies for NZ Trade and Enterprise’s Capability Development Voucher Scheme.
