Behavioral-Based Interviewing: Reduce the Risk of Hiring the Wrong Person

Thursday, August 11, 2016 at 1pm ET

Duration: 90 minutes

The hard and soft costs of making a bad hire are well documented: lost productivity, decreased morale, double recruiting and hiring costs, damaged reputation, possible litigation and more.

In fact, employee turnover costs U.S. companies approximately $300 billion each year, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor.

The bottom line: A bad hire can cost your company two times the employee's salary (plus months of stress and frustration) to replace them.

Fortunately, there is a way to improve your chances of finding the right fit the first time.

Studies have shown Behavioral Based Interviewing to be 5 times more effective than traditional interview techniques at predicting future success.

By using Behavioral Based Interviewing techniques, you'll get candidates to respond with specific examples rather than canned answers that reveal little about their qualifications. In essence, you learn what the candidate has done in the past, and will likely do in the future if hired.
