Unfortunately, all we have to go on is our pre-employment process. If your applicants are not meeting your needs coming in the door, then look at the process that brought them there.

This presentation will look at various ways to adapt and improve the interview process. What kind of questions should you ask? Should you use a written assessment or physical test? Will the scenario be simulation, live actor, or tabletop? Can you interview a distance applicant? No process is perfect, but come figure out what you should look for to get the most out of your screening.
