LinkedIn Survey – GLOBAL RECRUITING TRENDS 2018

Global-recruiting-trends-2018

It’s time for job interviews to change.

Studies show that traditional job interviews are poor predictors

of job performance. Interviewees give rehearsed answers and

interviewers are biased to pick candidates they like rather than

those with the most potential.

LinkedIn surveyed nearly 9,000 talent leaders and hiring managers from

around the globe and identified five new interviewing techniques

to help you assess and engage candidates more effectively. This

report explores these methods and how six of the most innovative

companies are implementing them. Read on to reimagine your

own interview process and improve your hiring results.

“Soft skills assessments are here to stay. In today’s environment there is such a demand for information. We all want information to make better hiring decisions, to better understand who is most likely to be successful at our firms, and who is most likely to stay. These assessments are meant do just that, hence our interest in testing and learning.” Courtney Storz, Head of Global Campus Recruiting at Citi
