Most companies have developed an intensive candidate scrub process in order to try to avoid those $100K+ wrong hire mistakes. That process should stay as is. You still need to check references and test for aptitude and personality fit. You still need to interview effectively to assess fit and sell the opportunity. Finding Winners is a an entirely new window for you to look through in terms of customer engagement skills and propensity to learn. If you value rate our decision influence deliverable versus other expenses you have in your process, it’s not going to be our program that gets dropped.
In some cases our clients may not have senior team leaders or would value adding another senior executive to the decision team. Finding Winners coaches are senior executive caliber folks. In your orientation session you can discuss other areas you want the coach to probe during the feedback process. They are experts at asking interview questions which will illuminate critical character or skills issues you would like to have more insight on. It’s fairly easy for a coach to slide into those questions during the feedback process and we often get very interesting answers from the candidates.
