Talking Point - An Interactive Forum

Making Better Hiring Decisions:
5 Ways to Increase Your Hit Rate

This event will suit business managers who want to improve their hiring decisions. In SMEs, one wrong hiring of a key position can really hurt the business and yet smaller companies often don't have the time, resources or knowledge to implement comprehensive selection processes. This session will allow participants to reflect on their own perspectives and practices of talent assessment, and to explore cost-effective alternatives that can dramatically increase the accuracy of hiring decisions.

What is Talking Point?
Talking point provides a forum for business owners and professionals to discuss challenges, and share experiences and tips on surviving and succeeding in China's business environment. Meetings are interactive and participatory so please come with ideas, questions and stories to share with the group.
