With the average cost-per-hire in the UK being £3,000, it is in an organisation’s best interest to ensure they make the correct hires. However, this can often be easier said than done.

To ensure the correct hire is made, those conducting an interview must be equipped with the skills and knowledge to ensure the interview is effective and they come away with all the information they need.

This short online Effective Recruitment Training course provides users with this information in easily-digestible bitesize chunks, covering areas including:

  • Asking effective questions
  • Interview structures
  • Key skills to look for in a candidate

Would be suited to those new to recruitment.

A good overview for those who are new to recruitment. Not so appropriate for those who have more experience. I would not suguests this should be completed annually, unless anything vital changes in employment law. Easy to follow straightforward and not too onerous to complete, which is positive.

Good overview of running a fair process

Could have been a little more detail on managing the interview process, perhaps with a short video section?

Useful refresher

Interesting course

concise and effective

Pointless and awkward.

The actual training itself is basically useless. It's full of points like "consider whether you'll use an application form or ask for CVs". I've never known any job be advertised at ElCom where we ask for CVs. But more annoyingly than this, it's really difficult to actually get into and complete the training. I've had to request new links to get to it 4 times now. The links must expire within about 1 day? For training that has been made mandatory, and when we're in an election year this is just really unhelpful for staff.
