Ad­vice from Staff de­vel­op­ment

Do you need support in recruiting or selecting new employees? Staff Development will be happy to assist you with your selection process. Among other things, we can advise you on ...

  • ... the creation of a requirements profile and a job advertisement text: What requirements does the position entail and what does the person need to bring to the table? How can I formulate this in the advert text?
  • ... the organisation of the selection process: How do I develop an interview guide? How can I assess non-technical skills (e.g. communication skills, leadership skills, organisational skills, etc.)? Which questions are suitable? To what extent could work samples, role plays etc. make my selection easier?
  • ... when conducting job interviews: What should I pay attention to during the interviews? What should I avoid?

Staff Development will also be happy to take part in your job interviews and support you in assessing the applications!
