Role
Recruiter / Sourcer
The hiring challenge
Their judgment passes straight to the client: if they screen poorly, the client receives an uneven shortlist. It's hard to see in an interview how solid their judgment is when assessing others.
What to assess
Knowledge of HR practices, information management, and the sensitivity to assess diverse profiles with a common standard.
How we build the mix
A person with higher cognitive ability tends to learn faster, reason better and adapt to new problems. For this role it is a good base for the mix.
Related competencies confirm that this capable person can perform the specific functions of the role well, not just reason in the abstract.
A technical assessment (your own or digitized) verifies they can use the tools of the role. Or, as an alternative, DISC to learn the behavioral profile for the role.
