We will discuss taking time for project prep (because recruiting is a project) before posting the job ad, setting up scorecards to remove bias, and a focus on “soft skills”. Donna Beckett will also share with us a common hiring mistake.
In this episode, host Wendy Sellers talks with recruiting expert Donna Beckett about treating workplace recruiting as a well-managed project rather than a rushed task. They cover essential prep steps before posting a job ad, the value of scorecards in minimizing bias, and why soft skills should never be overlooked. Donna also reveals one of the most common—and costly—hiring mistakes she sees employers make.
