Candidate Validation
It all starts with your job specification.
Symmetry conduct the following services to ensure our shortlists are accurately assessed against the competencies in every job specification:
Standard:
Behavioural Based Interviewing
Every candidate shortlisted for your role has been interviewed and assessed against the competencies in your job description. We build a job specific behavioral based interview guide and use it to assess every candidate for that role.
Research indicates behavioural based interviewing, reviewing past behaviour, is five times more likely to provide accurate predictions of future conduct in the workplace.
