Competency Based Selection

Overview:
Today's employment marketplace is so fiercely competitive due to a shortage of candidates with the right skills, talents and abilities, such that only organisations with high-touch recruitment and selection systems are able to acquire competent, top quality talent to grow with the organisation.  Haphazard recruitment and selection is a strategy that worked in the past but is no longer adequate. Developing the right recruitment and selection model for your organisation ensures that you have an effective strategy that is integrated into your overall business strategy. This will not only ensure the optimisation of your recruitment and selection activities, but the building of a winning team.

Programme:
By the end of the programme, participants would be able to:

• Identify and define competency requirements
• Understand the methods for attracting candidates who meet the requirements
• Conduct effective selection interviews
• Make appropriate hiring decisions

For:
Line managers who are responsible for the performance of others, human resource managers, personnel development and training managers, recruitment specialists, search and selection consultants, academics in human resource management, and anyone who requires a certification in recruitment and selection.
