The GLS Hiring Process Overview

At GLS, we believe the Hiring Process, including sourcing, screening, interviewing and hiring, is a critical component in the success of your organization. Not only does it affect the quality of new employees, but it also has a significant impact on your bench strength and talent pipeline.

By helping you identify the right criteria and tools, coupled with the right focused development competencies, will not only help you improve individual performance, but also make it easier for you to make the right hiring decision.

We help you develop custom competency models and interview templates to fit the needs of your organization and to reflect your company's unique hiring process and culture. The outcome is selecting the right person for the right role every time.

Interview Guides

The simple fact is most managers rarely receive training on how to conduct an interview or evaluate a potential candidate. As a result, managers must often improvise and end up hiring someone who is like them, someone they like, or just end up selecting based on their gut. This can be a recipe for disaster.

As you’ve probably experienced, candidates can be great at selling themselves, but once hired, do not illustrate the talents you thought were there in the interview. If managers don’t have the proper interview tools to make the right decision it often will lead to a bad hire.

GLS takes the complexity and guesswork out of the hiring process by providing your managers the right tools. Our TalMetrics assessment includes a customized interview guide based on the candidate’s specific results. Behavioral and achievement-based interview guides, supporting materials and recommendations on how to integrate the assessment into your current interview process is also provided. We ensure your managers have the tools to conduct a great interview and make the right hiring decision.

Onboarding

Getting the right person for the role is critical, but the real work begins on Day One. In order for your new leader to be successful in their new role they must quickly integrate into the new position and achieve rapid success. Many factors affect a leader's success in the transition – the great news is we provide a key part of the puzzle for you.

Using our TalMetrics assessment we'll highlight your new hires' unique motivational, thinking and behavioral styles to uncover their strengths, styles and growth opportunities in their new position. This powerful knowledge, coupled with our time-tested New Leader Integration process will guide your new leader and have them create action plans to:

• Understand the specific traits and capabilities to be successful in the role,
• Gain clarity about the role, organization, scope of authority and responsibilities,
• Learn the unwritten rules of behavior, communication and culture within your organization,
• Uncover the needs of key stakeholders, peers and employees to ensure appropriate deliverables and outcomes,
• Gain early wins to build credibility and confidence, and
• Work with their new team to define roles, goals, outcomes and expectations
