Description
Recruiters certainly don’t want to give this one a miss. In a recent study, Leadership IQ found that 46 percent of all new hires fail within their first 18 months. But, here’s the real shocker: 89 percent fail for attitudinal reasons- not skills. Most hiring managers are getting it wrong. Of course, skills are important, but a particular skill set is about the easiest thing to test in an interview. Attitude should be your number one focus during the hiring process. It is an employee’s attitude that makes them put in a 100 percent effort and turns customers into raving fans. Your employees’ attitude can set your company apart from the competition.
In Hiring for Attitude, top leadership strategist Mark Murphy discusses the following:
- Five biggest reasons why new hires fail
- Two quick and easy tests to discover the attitudinal characteristics that you need for your unique culture
- Five-part interview question that gets candidates to reveal the truth about what their last boss really thinks of them
- Where great companies really find their best candidates
- Six words most interviewers add to the end of behavioural interview questions that destroy their effectiveness
- Case studies from Microchip, Southwest Airlines, The Ritz-Carlton, Google, and other companies that drive great results by hiring for attitude.
