The interview is one of the first steps in hiring a candidate. However, most hiring managers aren’t experts at interviewing. So, what can you do to improve the interview stage and ensure you’re hiring the perfect people for the job?
This is where the Topgrading methodology can help you. The Topgrading team has designed a powerful, long-form interview approach to help hiring managers learn from candidates’ stories, identify patterns, and get a rich data set about that person. Through this approach, companies are finding more A players without having to hire and fire candidates who aren’t the right fit.
In this episode of the Talent Wins Podcast, host Chris Mursau is interviewed by Chad Franzen of Rise25 to talk about improving the interview process. Chris shares how he helped one company implement Topgrading and transform their business, why the Topgrading interview is so powerful, and how the long-form interview helps you seek out A players.
