Recruitment and Selection (UK PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS Management / Business)

How often does your recruitment and selection process get it right? Have you ever thought to yourself `My life would be a lot easier if we¿d never taken this one on¿ Recruitment and selection is the foundation of all other HR activity. Get it wrong and it doesn¿t matter how good your development programme is, how well you motivate your staff, how you manage their performance, or even how well you reward them ¿ you are always making up for that one bad decision. It is also one of your principal points of contact with line managers ¿ deliver a less than perfect performance there and your chances of being taken seriously as a strategic business partner will be pretty slim. Get it right, however, and you can transform a mundane, everyday HR process into a chance to improve your organisation¿s performance by improving the quality of the people you¿re asking to deliver it. Do that and your line and senior management colleagues will sit up and take notice.Gareth Roberts shows you how to improve your recruitment, selection and induction processes so that you stand a better chance of making the right choice more often.
