Enable Self-Elimination to Improve Hiring and Promotion Outcomes

2019 Talent Conference & Exposition
Gain a better understanding of how self-elimination by candidates for hiring or promotion benefits them and your organization, and learn a straightforward approach to improve the chances of self-elimination.

Even the best companies to work for are not best for everyone. When candidates have an incomplete understanding of the organization’s culture and the job’s requirements, they can end up unpleasantly surprised, which results in lower satisfaction, decreased engagement and increased turnover. So while your enthusiasm and encouragement are very successful at attracting candidates, you also need an approach that enables candidates to self-eliminate if they realize they won’t be engaged or work out once you’ve hired or promoted them. This session will address the benefits of clearly communicating so candidates can better assess whether you are right for them. With the new clarity, there will be fewer disappointing surprises, and the organization and the candidate can have a respectful relationship. Further, less time and energy will be spent on those who wouldn’t work out, and you can be more effective and efficient with those who will.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand the benefit of clearly communicating with candidates in a way that enables them to self-eliminate.
  • Learn about the positive impact effectively managing relationships with candidates can have on your organization’s brand and image.
  • Understand how the perception of ethical practice is negatively affected when newly hired employees regret not having self-eliminated.
  • Uncover the dire consequences of promoting an employee (particularly into management) who does not fully understand the challenge/opportunity.
  • Apply the concepts to scenarios to enable immediate application in the workplace.
