The Art of Strategic Interviewing

Cornell University research found that the cost of employee turnover is 150 percent of a manager's annual salary and 30 percent of an hourly employee's annual income. A good hiring system staffed with skilled interviewers is your best defense against these risks.
Companies need candid discussion and facts to make good hiring decisions. Getting honest and thorough answers isn't easy. It takes skill. Organizations that hire well create an environment that facilitates open conversation between job candidates and interviewers.
Excellent interviewers have the skill of discernment. They can separate "fact from fantasy." Discernment is a "trainable" skill, and William E. Miller, founder of Performance Leadership, LLC uses a unique framework to help interviewers develop and improve their "judgment calls."
