Hiring the Best--Interviewing for IntegritySeries
Topics:
· Preliminary interviewing considerations
· Conditioning the candidate to tell the truth
· Evaluating the candidate's behavior
· Asking follow-up questions
· Specialized areas of the integrity interview
Up to 40% of police and fire candidates have engaged
in past misconduct that, if known, would disqualify
them from consideration for employment. This information
often cannot be detected with traditional background
investigations and screening procedures.
However, no one knows more about a candidate's past
behavior than the candidate does. The Hiring the Best
program offers specific, step-by-step instruction on
how to elicit truthful responses from a candidate during
a face to face interview. This four-part, 60-minute
video training program was developed by John
E. Reid & Associates, nationally recognized
experts in effective interviewing techniques. The Reid
Technique® has been successfully utilized in tens
of thousands of employment interviews.
Hiring the Best is designed for any police officer who
has the responsibility for hiring, promoting, selection
of special assignments, or lateral transfers of personnel.
