Description
Objectives
Selection and assessment are two of the most critical processes in HR management. A scientific and evidence-based approach to selection is the base for the employee performance and satisfaction. A particular and cost-effective methodology for the assessment is the base for our future organisation’s managing teams.
Nevertheless, they are often underestimated.
On the one hand, the selection is often not valid, because it is seldom linked to performance. Saying in other words, often the organisation fail in providing scientific evidence of the link between the selection score to a performance criterion measure.
On the other hand, selection and assessment processes are often based on the procedure that, unfortunately, has been proved to be unreliable other than expensive.
This training provides a complete and clear picture of the tools, methodologies and the most effective techniques to be used in selection in an effective and cost-saving way.
