Webinar Overview
It is widely accepted that submitting a resume is a crucial part of the job application process. As a first point of contact between a job seeker and an employer, a ‘well-crafted’ resume can help a strong candidate stand out from the competition and secure an interview… right? We also tend to believe that a good interview and references are predictive of a good employee.
What if we are wrong? What if these traditional practices lull us into a false sense of security, while also reducing the size of our talent pool?
As part of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce Honest Conversation Series, this webinar will explore some of the research behind these hiring tools and challenge us to consider if these job-search-standbys are actually hurting our overall human resource strategies.
