  • Overview

    About the programme

    This programme will equip anyone involved with selection interviewing to prepare for, conduct and assess interviews professionally and incisively, ensuring that the right candidate is selected and avoiding the high costs associated with poor selection.

    Scripted by a subject expert and trainer, and with an accompanying trainer's guide, this innovative training programme is comprised of short clips which allow the trainer complete flexibility and control to intervene at any point and jump around to relevant scenes. Scenes demonstrate good practice and bad practice and cover the following areas:

    • An introduction to selection interviewing skills
    • Preparing as an interviewer
    • Exploring and verifying information
    • Reviewing and comparing candidates
    • Selling the job to the right candidate
    • The interviewees' experience


    Unlike many similar products, this programme is not based around a drama. Instead, each scene is firmly centred round a set of key learning points which helps to focus the viewer's attention and consolidate their learning. It represents real employees in an environment which is modern yet neutral and can be used by any type of organisation.




    Programme includes

    • DVD
    • Trainer’s guide
