“Unfortunately, most interview training for hiring managers isn’t great.  It’s often too basic, too boring, and too generic to teach your teams how to hire the right talent for your organization. Since 2005, we’ve been training hiring managers and interviewers – from over 30 countries – how to define their hiring bar, interview and select great talent, while focusing on quality, speed, and diversity. I personally built our training for smart hiring teams, looking for a core methodology and practical techniques that go beyond basic behavioral interviewing. We love earning 5/5 reviews from even your most critical hiring managers – 88% of our attendees rate our training a 5/5, with 98% recommending it to their peers. But what we love even more, is helping you deploy a high hiring bar across your org, so that you get the right talent into your teams.”

License to Hire

Looking to go beyond interview training, to certify your hiring managers? We build custom License to Hire training for companies like LinkedIn and Electronic Arts, where hiring managers learn more than just how to interview.  They also learn how to champion diversity, role model good hiring to their teams , network and attract talent, and sell by speaking to their candidate’s top motivators.

Executive Hiring

Looking for a partner to train up your VP and C-level executives?  We build custom, smart training for your most senior leaders.  Our executive hiring manager training – loved by companies like Deloitte, Autodesk, and Nubank – is tailored to the needs of your hiring teams who hire for your Director and VP level talent.

Bar Raiser

Looking to implement a quality control mechanism to make sure you set and maintain a high hiring bar?  Our CEO co-built and led Amazon’s famous Bar Raiser program when he led tech recruiting there in Amazon’s formative years.  Since then, we’ve helped companies put programs in place – from Bar Raiser like programs at Beyond Meat and Adidas, to Hiring Committee programs at Yahoo! – to help them ensure quality hiring decisions that avoid bad hires and avoid missing out on good hires, with an eye to diversity.

What Makes Great Hiring Manager Training Great?

Why does some interview training get rave reviews and lead to real improvements in quality hires, diversity, candidate experience, and speed?  And why does some interview training get bad reviews and make no impact?

John Vlastelica wrote up an overview on hiring manager training best practices.  If you’re thinking about building your own interviewer training, even if you’re just starting with basic behavioral interviewing 101, you should read this and learn what you can do to make it great, and avoid the things that make bad training bad.
