Behavioral strategy for hiring top-performing talent.

If you've ever felt the sting of a poor hiring decision or you're just tired of uncertainty when it comes to adding new faces to your team, "The Talent Edge" could be your game-changer. David S. Cohen's methodical approach steers away from traditional, often superficial hiring practices, honing in on behavior-based tactics that really seem to resonate with managers looking for that surefire fit. It's not just a handbook; it's a deep dive into transforming your hiring into a precise art form, with compelling case studies that make the strategies tangible.

Description

A practical, step-by-step approach to hiring the right person. Traditional hiring and interviewing often fail to predict organizational fit and future on-the-job success. Behavioral interviewing can significantly improve your chances of selecting the right candidate — two to five times over traditional processes. It focuses on how the candidate works rather than solely on skills, qualifications, or impressions. The Talent Edge explains how to develop a concrete understanding of what your top performers do differently and how to translate that knowledge into a better hiring system. Using case studies from organizations that have transformed their hiring practices, the book makes the business case for a Behavioral Interviewing system and provides a roadmap for implementation. It covers how to write job profiles and translate them into interview questions and answers, how to prepare for the interview, ask effective questions, and probe for the right information. The book also explains how behaviors proven useful in hiring can be incorporated into performance management, career development, and succession planning.
