Training sessions to focus on staff hiring, retention
The Office of Institutional Equity and Human Resource Services Employment are offering a series of sessions designed to assist supervisors in developing and refining their staff hiring and employee retention skills.
For hiring supervisors and search committee members who already have basic knowledge of staff hiring practices and procedures at Purdue, the following three sessions, “Conducting Quality Interviews,” “A Guide to Reference Checking,” and “Diversity in Employment,” are offered in one block so that those interested in participating may attend one, two, or all three of the sessions.
