Selection
Selection is a process of making successive choices. Hays organises this selection process for you: step by step we examine the jointly formulated selection criteria. At the same time there is a constant focus on advocating and presenting a positive picture of your organisation. Candidates will also select an employer that fits their wishes and needs.
Your consultant combines various selection instruments, including:
- CV - and letter selection: selection based on education, experience, career structure, etc.. Competence interviews: to further address issues like expertise, work methods, interaction with others, interpersonal skills, personality, motivation and ambition
- High-quality tests: depending on the sector, Hays uses specific tests to validate the candidates’ level in accounting, commercial and technical skills. Job requirements - personality, immune to stress, speed/accuracy, sales capabilities, financial knowledge, management or organisational qualities - are also determined on the basis of high-quality in-depth testing
- Introduction interview with the employer: on the basis of a sound advice, you will meet the most suitable candidates. General atmosphere and the personal ‘click’ play an important role. If you so desire, your consultant will be present to check for consistent behaviour and to jointly balance the candidate’s strengths and weaknesses
- References: at your request we can follow up on references. In accounting, commercial and technical jobs, this information provides additional assurance
- Other: if you so desire, you can make use of our Assessment products. One of our psychologists can advise you on validating core competencies that are of importance to the job.
