How to Assess a Candidate's Attitude Using Motivation-Based Interviewing

2019 Annual Conference & Exposition
This powerful interviewing technique will enable you to improve your organization's quality-of-hire.

Attitude is the number-one predictor of future performance and success. Hiring decisions based on a candidate's skill level alone actually decrease hiring success, because it takes more than skill to succeed. A job skill suggests that a person can do a job, but it doesn't guarantee that the person will go above and beyond. This fast-paced, fun and interactive session shows you how to incorporate attitude assessment into your interview process so you can hire high-performers.

Learning Objectives:

  • Find out exactly what “attitude” is and the powerful role it plays in job performance and success.
  • Understand why skill is not an accurate predictor of future performance.
  • Discover the attitude that all high-performers share.
  • Practice an attitude assessment exercise using music lyrics.
