Hiring and Selection
Hiring and selecting the right people for positions within organizations represents one of the highest impact HR interventions. This consulting service offering focuses on designing and implementing the criteria, the process, and the supporting tools and training to help organizations maximize role-person fit.

The best available method for overcoming potential vulnerabilities in the hiring and selection process is to systematically identify specific behavioral criteria for excellence. This is achieved by using behaviorally-anchored interviewing and supporting evaluation tools and processes. Our hiring process and tools help clients focus on:
  • Using behaviorally anchored interviewing guidelines based on content specific competency models
  • Applying specifically designed probe questions to elicit objective evidence related to the performance of the required competencies
  • Using tools and a process that provide a systematic analysis and ranking of candidates based on objective competency criteria
In many engagements, we not only develop the interview process and guidelines, but also create overall approaches to hiring and selection (e.g., campus hiring strategies, talent pipeline development, new hire assimilation) and provide the rollout training.

Schoonover Associates provides a specific workshop for recruiting and hiring managers - Hiring Right Every Time -- that helps hiring those master best practices for hiring and selecting employees. This one- or two-day workshop provides practical approaches for successfully integrating and using competency interviewing techniques and tools for collecting and analyzing interview data.
