It’s tailored to your world
We work with you ahead of time to understand what kind of challenges you’re facing, why Hiring Manager training is needed, and how we can help motivate managers to engage in the recruiting process effectively.  We also schedule hiring manager focus group calls to learn – first hand – what hiring managers need from this workshop so that they leave with practical, actionable strategies and tactics.

It’s not preachy
Some Hiring Manager training comes off as preachy. You can just picture a well-intentioned facilitator shaking their finger at attendees, telling them how they need to change. This training is different. We set it up in a way that taps into every Hiring Manager’s need to be a good manager and leader and show them, in an objective, non-judgmental way, how to succeed.

It’s practical
Our training doesn’t spend an hour telling them “why” being an effective hiring manager and hiring the right people is so important; they know that. It focuses on the “how,” and is loaded with tools and cheat sheets to make finding, interviewing, selling, and on-boarding new hires easy.

• New and experienced Hiring Managers.
• Note: We also offer a screening and interview training program that goes deeper into interviewing and selection.

We conduct 1-3 focus group calls with your hiring managers before we design your training. This helps us to customize the content by learning more about the skill level of the managers who will attend and also learning to speak your “language”. It also helps your team get comfortable with us, our approach, and our expertise.

Our workshop facilitators are former corporate recruiting leaders and recruiters who have built and lived the hiring best practices we design and share with your teams. Your managers will know – right away – that our team has the credibility and expertise to help them hire the best talent.

Yes! We include templates that make hiring easier.

• Customizable Job Spec and Job Posting Template
• Phone Screen Guide
• Interviewing Guide
• Reference Check Guide
• Feedback and Decision Making Guide
• On Boarding Checklist
• New Hire Welcome Email Template

We include tools/templates with every workshop we deliver. These are designed to help the training “live on” after the workshop is over. We’re happy to incorporate your existing tools/templates with this training, too, as it can help you to drive adoption and make the workshop feel more integrated with your existing process.

After the training, hiring managers head back to their desks with easy-to-use tools to help them hire better. This is not some theoretical workshop focused on the importance of hiring top talent; it’s all about the “how to.”

It depends on the agenda we custom-build for you, but – in general – these workshops are a quarter to full day.
