Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A competitive advantage in Competency-Based Interviewing skills will give you the greatest chance of attaining the role you desire within the most suitable company for you. There has been a significant increase in the number of companies requesting candidates to undertake Competency Based Interviews (CBI) recently, but as companies become more sophisticated in how they assess for these behaviours, the quality of the advice found online or even distributed by the recruiting companies remains primarily copied and pasted content that was well-intentioned but inadequately conceived in the first place. This book will show you how to develop stronger example answers for the most popular CBI questions, with deep insight on each of the behavioural competencies sought by companies today, a far more effective methodology than STAR for formulating your own examples and a plethora of examples provided by clients of mine who have used the techniques found in this book to acquire roles from Analyst through to Senior Director levels with some of the most desirable businesses. William Illing has been delivering Competency-Based Interviews for more than 20 years and for the last 8 years has also written and delivered workshops designed to significantly improve Competency-Based Interview skills.

Download or read book Topgrading revised PHP edition written by Bradford D. Smart Ph.D. and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2005-04-07 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great companies don’t just depend on strategies—they depend on people. The more great people on your team, the more successful your organization will be. But that’s easier said than done. Statistically, half of all employment decisions result in a mishire: The wrong person winds up in the wrong job. But companies that have followed Bradford Smart’s advice in Topgrading have boosted their successful hiring rate to 90 percent or better, giving them an unbeatable competitive advantage. Now Smart has fully revised his 1999 management classic to reintroduce the topgrading concept, which works for companies large and small in any industry. The author spells out his practical approach to finding and managing A-level talent—as well as coaching B players to turn them into A players. He provides intriguing case studies drawn from more than four thousand in-depth interviews. As Smart writes in his introduction, “All organizations, all businesses live or die mostly on their talent, and any manager who fails to topgrade is nuts, or a C player. . . . Those who, way deep down, would sooner see an organization die than nudge an incompetent person out of a job should not read this book... Topgrading is for A players and all those aspiring to be A players.” On the web: http://www.topgrading.com/
Download or read book Competency Based Resumes written by Robin Kessler and published by Red Wheel/Weiser. This book was released on 2004-11-15 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of job hunters and employers are frustrated. Why aren’t they working together more effectively? Because employers have changed the job-search playing field and too many candidates are using yesterday’s strategies. Do you want the key to the best jobs with the best employers? It’s time to play offense instead of defense. Competency-Based Resumesshows today’s job candidates a new, more targeted way to write resumes to get them back on the same playing field with the best employers and improve their odds of winning the job they want. The system an employer uses when filling jobs has changed significantly in the past few years, and it is still evolving. Rather than simply looking at an applicant’s past jobs, companies are instead looking at candidate’s experiences in certain key areas—including measurable work habits and the personal skills, known as competencies, used to achieve objectives at work. Competency-Based Resumes offers you a new and effective way to create resumes that emphasizes the knowledge, skills, and abilities that you have and employers need. Many sophisticated U.S. and international organizations are using competency-based systems to recruit, interview, select, and promote. Corporations such as American Express, Coca-Cola, Sears, and MetLife are all looking for specific competencies. Creating your own competency-based resume will: — Confirm to the employer that you have the expertise—or competencies—they are looking for. — Improve your chances of being selected for interviews for the position you want. — Help you to be perceived as being more competitive. — Enable you to explain sticky areas in your background in a more positive way. Most applicants do not know how to apply for jobs based on this new dynamic. Few candidates write their resumes so their critical competencies are obvious. Competency-Based Resumes will move your resume to the top of the pile, giving you the edge you need in any job market, no matter how competitive.

Download or read book Managing People written by Rosemary Thomson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-02 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This updated and exciting fourth edition of Managing People: A Practical Guide for Front-Line Managers addresses the growing needs of front-line managers who are not themselves specialists in personnel management but whose roles require them to have these skills. A growing trend over the last two decades has given these managers an increasing amount of responsibility of direct line management, which can be extremely challenging especially if the correct training is not given. This book examines how the different parts of managing people fit together, whilst acknowledging that different contexts require different approaches and recognizing ongoing organizational, environmental and legal changes that affect the employment framework. It recognizes the rapidly changing context in which modern front-line managers have to operate and acknowledges the increasing expectations of good leadership as a necessity. However, the book also emphasizes the need for front-line managers to understand themselves, their own management styles and attitudes, together with the importance of empathy in appreciating the perspectives of the staff that work under them. Managing People: A Practical Guide for Front-Line Managers is designed for both new managers and for NVQ/SVQ Level 4 students. It is also appropriate for the first stages of Foundation Degrees and for HND courses combining academic study with workplace learning.
