Interview Training (BIT) Register to receive training on this important technique

When recruiting for an open position, your aim is to select the best person for the job. Behavioral-based interview training (BIT) is a technique that enables you to gain critical insights into a candidate’s potential, strengths and development areas. It focuses on understanding past behavior in order to predict likely future performance. “Many business managers suggest that recruiting people is a constant challenge. Even with many years of experience, it is not always easy to assess candidates in a limited amount of time – neither face-to- face nor virtually (current reality). Behav- ioral-based interview training provides the skills and techniques that enable our business managers to apply the STAR – Situ- ation, Task, Action, Result – model, explore the job relevant information/details embedded within the ABB values.

This helps business managers consolidate the information/details and decide ac- cordingly. Having our business managers trained in BIT will improve the interview effectiveness and the overall quality of the interview result,” said RA Talent & Learning Manager Fanny-Yi Wan. BIT is available for line managers and is delivered virtually by our provider, Cubiks. If you are interested, you can register here. Please note: the training fee is US$920 and will come out of your cost center. Be sure to get your manager’s approval before enrolling. You will need to submit your purchase order when you register for the program.
