Traditional Job Descriptions Are Worthless

 

Image of a trash can full of traditional job descriptions that are worthless for hiring effectiveness

 

For hiring purposes, traditional job descriptions don't define the real job!

Does this look like your job descriptions:

checkmark Minimum years of experience.

checkmark Required minimum education.

checkmark List of minimum skills and experience required.

checkmark List of duties, tasks and responsibilities for the position.

checkmark Some minimum type of knowledge (e.g. programming language, ability to drive a truck).

checkmark List of behavioral traits (e.g. team player, self-motivated, high energy, good communications, strong leader, strong work ethic).

checkmark Ability to do certain tasks (e.g. travel, lift 50 pounds, work after 7 PM, climb a ladder).

checkmark Finally, other duties as assigned.

 

Your job descriptions may have some additional points, but this is probably close.

Take a good look at what this is defining. It is defining a person more than a job and it is defining the minimum standards for that person.


DO YOU REALLY WANT TO HIRE THE LEAST

QUALIFIED?

 

If you want to hire successful people you have to first define

success. This webinar will show you how to define success

and then use that definition for:

checkmark hiring successful people, NOT the least qualified.

checkmark sourcing top talent.

checkmark performance management.

checkmark bringing the new candidate on board.

checkmark compensation.

checkmark reference checking.

 

Here is what others say about how this webinar has changed hiring in their companies.

John McClane, CEO, Portland, OR "Excellent webinar. We have changed all our job descriptions to define top performance instead of the least qualified. Now everyone agrees on what top talent is before we hire someone."

Jerry Brooks, Owner, Dublin, CA. "This one webinar changed our complete hiring process. We incorporate Success Factors in every job description. I made sure all my managers attended this webinar. It is that good."

Diane Johnson, Sr. VP HR, Walnut, CA. "This is so common sense I can't believe we haven't done this for years. As a large company, change is never easy, but we embraced the Success Factors and have completely revamped our job descriptions."

Gayle Young, President, Atlanta, GA. "I highly recommend this webinar. I made sure all my managers attended it. It will change your hiring process and really help hire top talent."

 

 

This webinar can change how you attract, hire, and retain top talent. We will show you how to define success and start hiring successful people.

 

We've put together a set of additional learning tools to reinforce the webinar. Studies show that you'll forget 90% of the information taught in a webinar within 48 hours. Can you afford to invest the time in a powerful webinar on hiring and leveraging top talent, and then forget everything you've just learned. Reinforce and embed the concepts of the Success Factor Methodology by purchasing the PowerPoint slide presentation and the audio recording.
