What Hiring Managers Want to Hear from Candidates in a Phone Interview
(IEEE-USA Free Webinar) – Behavioral interviewing is said to be 55 percent predictive of future on-the-job behavior, while traditional interviewing is only 10 percent predictive. As a result, companies are increasingly focusing on screening candidates for behavioral traits, especially in 5 core areas:
- Leadership Style
- Conflict Resolution
- Collaboration
- Problem Solving
- Accomplishment
Additionally, given that the average job has 250 applicants, companies are increasingly using phone interviews as the first screen to identify the highest potential candidates. Given these trends, it is imperative that job seekers prepare and internalize how their work experience is related to these behavioral themes and the job they are interviewing for, and practice communicating with synthesis and clarity.
This webinar provides a blueprint for interview preparation with this focus in mind.
