Listen "How to Handle Internal Interviews"
Episode Synopsis
"Have a very deliberate process for filling existing roles that is the same for everybody, external, internal. Make sure that process is also going to identify the best candidate for the role and that you're developing people to be the best candidate." Notable Moments 00:53 Deliberate Internal Candidate Development 04:28 Pitfalls of Internal Promotions Without Purpose 07:04 Create a Deliberate Hiring Process for Internal and External Candidates 12:35 Developing Leadership Skills for Longterm Employee Growth 14:15 Recruitment and Strategic Organizational Culture Services A common pitfall in organizations is making internal promotions based on sentiment rather than strategy. One of the worst approaches to filling a position is promoting someone just because it felt like the right thing to do. On the flip side, organizations that focus primarily on external hiring neglect internal talent and miss the opportunity to further develop people already committed to your business. Talent coming from within the organization can bring unique advantages when the process is approached correctly. Read the blog for more on the importance of implementing a structured approach, developing your people, and how internal promotions done right can boost morale and strengthen your organization.
