- Brief: The customer is a tech company specialized in Computer Vision. They contacted with The Rebel Company to receive training on candidates interviews and evaluation. In particular, the hiring manager is a technical profile who is new to this task. For this reason, the request involves practical training that will help them avoid hiring mistakes across interviews and selection process.
- Challenge: The person in charge has little time available as he is overwhelmed with other tasks. Furthermore, the profile sought falls within a highly in demand skills niche. The challenge is to help the client engage into learning activities in a short amount of time while helping him choose the most valid candidates.
- Approach: To help the customer achieve his goal, we have prepared a short handbook with detailed instructions on: questions to ask; comments and/or situations to avoid; what to evaluate in the answers; time schedule.
- Insight: Knowing what to avoid can be more effective than providing a long list of instructions. For someone who is new to candidates evaluation, it can be easy to get carried away by judgments such as “he seems nice to me” or “he’s too young”. For this reason, simple guidelines become essential tools for evaluation, allowing us to avoid bias and inappropriate behavior.
- Result: Interview training allowed the customer to reject non-matching profiles. In-depth questions allowed him to analyze candidates’ skills effectively, anticipating costly hiring mistakes. The experience also allowed the manager to conduct interviews with greater awareness, empowering him to report results confidetly to the rest of the team.
