The high cost of turnover in any organization cannot be discounted as bad luck or to blame solely on the competition for great employees – employees being pinched by competitors. The cost may be between 30-150% of the monthly salary depending on the level of position held in the company.
You may be one of the managers or executives who have been asked to interview people for job vacancies even though you have no formal training in interviewing. It is as if by the stroke of a magic wand, you are already fit to interview people for a job vacancy in your organization.
Wrong hiring decisions can be detrimental to the new hire, the manager, current employees, the organization and even to your customers. We missed the point that when we hire somebody, we are hiring the future of your company.
With proper competency-based interviews based on competencies (organizational, functional), you can predict the future of future performance of a job candidate based on his/her past performances. Traditional interiview questions like “Tell me about your job”, “What are your strengths” or the reverse of it, “What are your weaknesses” are unable to solicit enough information about what a person will do in the job.
