A paradigm shift in Recruitment

Looking beyond the resume, keywords and skills while hiring.

WHAT’S THE PARADIGM SHIFT?

• We are witnessing a significant change in the recruitment space ‘Organizational

Darwinism’

• VUCA- biggest driver of change

• VUCA’s effect on organizational/employee performance is tremendous

• Employees in a VUCA situation are

• less effective (under perform)

• less reliable (high risk taking)

• Innate behavior attributes essential to face VUCA- critical for success

Is it time to change the parameters for hiring across the organization?

Heaviest impact of VUCA

Highest impact of VUCA

- 80% of any

organization's employee

belong to the lowest rung

where behavior isn't

measured.

IMPORTANCE OF MEASURING BEHAVIOR IN HIRES

Abilities, skills and knowledge

• Abilities, skills and knowledgecan be learnt and can beenhanced

• Are mostly independent ofenvironmental factors

Personality/Behaviour

• Behavior and personality arerelatively constant

• They are influenced byenvironment and affectsperformance

Hence, behavior/personality becomes the most essential and

influencing factor for work productivity/performance.

Time Consuming Candidates scoring

high on assessments

Limitations in the assessments offered in the market today

Do you consider yourself to be shy?

Do you like parties?

Do your friends sometimes say

about you that you are a somewhat

self-important person?

Do you like to talk to strangers?

Lengthy and complicated reports Unrelated questions to work environment

Results of using the right behavior assessments

a) Enhancing organization’s performance by improving the accuracy of candidate selection.

b) Recommending the competencies for job profiles.

• This can help organisations identify and understand traits and behaviors of the team and optimize interactions (relationships) to improve individual and team performance.

• This can help managers to manage their team and individuals in the team by identifying different motivations and belief systems.

New Approach - Psycholinguistics

ASSESSING BEHAVIOR WITH VIDEO INTERVIEWS

Interviewing a candidate in an environment that s/he is most

comfortable in, is probably the most natural environment/setting

one can assess the candidate in.

Talview Interview Guide

Post the Video Interview process, Talview facilitates face-to-face

interviews by providing an interview guide based on the technique of Behavior Event

Interview process.

This ensures a scientific basis for the interview questions as they are mapped to the competencies to be measured for the given job role.

These questions lead the interviewer to ask questions that

elicits responses from the candidate that can be verified and

cannot be easily faked.

Developmental Guide

• The Talview reports contain adevelopmental guide for the candidate.

• This guide gives inputs on how certainbehaviors can be imbibed by thecandidate by recommending appropriatetraining programs.

• This helps in identifying the training needfor the candidates and can be a greatvalue add for the L&D.
