Every company has to recruit staff, and in small companies in particular, where there are no specialist HR departments, this task is left to managers. This book provides those who interview and recruit staff with the methods and confidence to make the right appointment.
The authors - experts in the latest methods for recruitment - focus on how to work up a short list and how to exclude those who attempt to deceive, exaggerate or play fast and loose with the truth in their CVs and during the interview phase. Moreover, the authors argue employers need to think more creatively about their recruitment process. Qualifications and experience are important, but so is a candidate's potential to learn and to adapt to the company. The authors provide tools to help employers assess candidates in these areas.
