- Entrepreneurship
Over my 15 years in the hiring and recruiting field, I’ve noticed that the lack of formal interview training has led to awkward, and sometimes illegal, practices. There are certain laws that prohibit us from asking questions about protected information that might lead to discrimination or the apperance of discrimination. I’m breaking down the exact topics that you need to avoid when you’re interviewing, and how to refocus your hiring techniques so that you’re getting the information you need without stepping over any boundaries. I also walk you through what to do if you learn about any protected information during the interview process, and how to steer the conversation in a better direction.
IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:
How to protect your business from different claims that may come up during the interview processThe different laws that are in place to protect employees during the hiring process What exactly is considered protected information Being mindful of your small talk topics and not getting too personal with follow-up questionsWays to talk about salary expectations without blatantly asking a candidate what they’re currently making
