I help businesses recruit, retain and develop talent by providing unique people insights
Good morning Linkedin Land Internesting podast on recruiting withing a CV here. This has been a point of discussion for years, and no doubt using a CV as your go to insight on someone’s fit for a role, brings a load of cognitive bias, and is not always a reliable indicator of future potential. However I am not sure the answer is to ditch CV’s entirely, which is what this podcast is advocating, but rather use additional insights to aid the decision making process. It would be a rather strange world if we told our children to not bother at school or get a job to get some real life experience because all you need to worry about is doing well on a screening test which will guarantee the employer,without any bias of its own, that you are the right candidate for the job. Ditching CV’s is a noble aspiration but I don’t see how it really is the answer to the challenges in recruitment. #recruitment #talentacquisition #psychometrics
