Recruitment and Selection Interviewing for Managers

You'll learn what are the characteristics of good managers and see how you think you'll measure up.

It was great to have the opportunity to learn some new techniques and to gain more awareness of how I present myself. The most immediately applicable uses have been in reducing my “ums” and “ahs” and in trying to come to my point in a more succinct way. I’ve been cultivating this awareness in one-on-one settings; meetings and individual conversations.
