& Hiring The Ideal Candidate

by Ed Grimshaw

Here is a thorough approach to making good recruitment decisions and to avoid costly mistakes.

This book will show you how to attract, interview and test candidates without incurring extra profiling costs, and to discover if the candidate matches your organisation’s culture to be “The Perfect Fit”.

In this detailed and comprehensive book on recruitment, you will find state of the art knowledge, a solid, pragmatic approach from the real world of business, combined with practical experience and the best tools, techniques and models from the field of Neuro Linguistic Programming NLP.

Finding the right person for the job has to date largely been more a matter of chance than of good judgement. But, in these challenging times, businesses that hope to survive and prosper need rely on much more than pure luck. Ed Grimshaw's innovative book offers not just hope, but also the practical means to a very important end. Writing from a position of in-depth practical experience, this manual demonstrates that the skill-sets required to guarantee a "perfect fit" are learnable, and once learned, take the guesswork out of successful recruitment and employment.   Garner Thomson, Author, Magic in Practice

Finding the right candidate, in this Credit Crunch Climate, is more important than ever. Selecting the best person for a position is difficult, you only have a short space of time in an interview to decide if this is the person you want to be working with for what could be many years.

This is why Neuro Linguistic Programming is so effective; in applying NLP to business we can gain a deeper insight into how people function, individually and as part of a team. We can also increase our understanding of the patterns of communication and the behaviours that can help us to differentiate between a good candidate and the perfect candidate.

When writing The Perfect Fit, Ed Grimshaw realised that there were many problems that recruiters faced when looking for a new employee and he resolved to create simple, practical solutions.

These key areas include:

• Discover a balanced and thorough approach to recruitment without incurring high or excessive levels of cost.

• Learn how to gain deeper insights into how people function individually and in teams.

  
  

• Avoid the costly recruitment mistake of placing the wrong person in the wrong job!

• Increase the level of predictability and precision in assessing candidates during the selection process.
