Who is organising this training course?

I am a trilingual Learning Professional located in Luxembourg, with 30 years of experience and a proven track record in industry, academia and consulting. My observation is that technical skills get people hired, but the so-called soft-skills are what allows them to develop their maximum impact. My conviction is that people skills and managerial skills are learnable and teachable. My passion is making breakthrough learning happen through enjoyable training sessions and professional coaching.

What are the aims or the skills being targeted?

This session looks at interviews from the recruiter’s perspective and describes:

The seven (?) deadly sins of recruiters
The structure and basic rules of effective interviewing
How to ask good questions and reduce bias

What does the training course cover?

Traditional job interviews are surprisingly unreliable and lead to expensive hiring mistakes. The hiring managers often overvalue chemistry and first impressions, and underestimate the value of a consistent structure. A well-designed approach creates clearer criteria, more comparable evidence and a more reliable process. It also reduces bias and increases the quality of hiring decisions.
