Getting Interviews Right!

The art of conducting an effective interview really is a skill set that has been massively underrated. Recruitment offers an ideal opportunity to bring on board people who can make a real difference and play a significant part in the long-term success of the business. Summed up perfectly by Peter Drucker.

“of all the decisions an executive makes, none are as important as the decisions about people; because they determine the performance capacity of the organisation“

Like many other people management skills, the ability to conduct an effective interview very rarely comes naturally and over recent months we have seen an increase in demand for training and development support on the subject.

Our mix of interactive group workshops, ‘live’ interview skills practice and coaching support has proved highly successful.

Preparation, a clearly defined interview structure and behavioural questioning techniques have been the foundation of the sessions delivered with the opportunity to build in your corporate values and competency framework.

Please get in touch if you want to support your managers attract the right people.

Recruitment & Interviewing Skills

We have lift off! A truly unique team event

Are you looking for a team event with a difference? Then, why not try the National Space Centre in Leicester.

Whether you have a newly formed team or an existing team who would benefit from looking at ways in which they can work more effectively together, the Space Centre offers a truly unique experience. The Challenger Learning Centre is one of only two educational space mission simulators of it type outside of North America.

On arriving at the centre your team will receive a briefing before blasting off to take part in a mission in to space! The mission is conducted in a controlled environment which allows us to test how the group communicate, solve problems, handle pressurised situations, offer feedback to their colleagues, receive feedback from their colleagues and react to a difference of opinion.

Facilitated by Futureproof’s Training Consultants the event will provide a powerful mix of group interaction, an open and honest appraisal of team performance and group discussion linked to improving team work.

What if levy funded programmes don’t meet your requirements or are not an appropriate style of development for your business?

Many people will agree that the introduction of the apprenticeship levy in May has mainly resulted in a positive step forward. However, for some businesses the duration of the programme, the initial assessment, the personal investment of time required from employees, and the structured assessment criteria throughout is just too much.

What is the alternative? For Futureproof the answer is simple, we work closely with an organisation to fully understand their requirements and business culture and only then do we start to plan the most appropriate training and development interventions to put in place.

We must then create a learning environment that utilises practical, engaging and challenging methodologies that are focused on a sustainable application of new skills and behaviours back in the workplace.

The link below offers some suggested modular development programmes that have been designed and delivered for other organisations. They are fully flexible in terms of duration, subjects covered and the methods used for measuring and evaluating how the learning is being applied.
