Strategic Hiring

Planning, Interviewing and Selecting your Next Hire

Thoughtful organizations and leaders build strategy around acquiring talent to meet both current and future business needs. Having a clear sense of your organization’s needs, as well as the strengths and opportunities within your team, allows you to make a more calculated decision about your next hire. And while there is no exact science for guaranteeing the perfect hire, you can improve your chances of hiring right the first time through a well-planned and executed process.

In this course, you will review the importance of your employer brand and how to better position your organization as an employer of choice.
