If only we had a crystal ball to help determine whether a job applicant will be a great new addition to your business, or a terrible choice. In this workshop, HR Full Circle will share insights for assessing the knowledge, skills and abilities that will predict success when interviewing job applicants. Well help you ask better questions to assess critical job competencies, as well as provide a few best practices for conducting interviews; don't forget - the candidate is interviewing your organization, and a bad experience will scare them away. We'll also share questions that you should avoid when interviewing and share insights for how to present and negotiate a job offer.

About the Speaker
Kelly Gust got her start in HR working at the bar her parents owned in Wisconsin. Why DID so many people like to drink cocktails and complain about their jobs? With a liberal arts degree from the University of Minnesota, she was worried she’d ALSO end up bartending, so she pursued her master’s from California State University, then worked at great companies like Starwood Hotels and Hot Topic. Her 20-year career has been spent making work BETTER; better hiring, onboarding, leader development, employee engagement and team building. Kelly now owns a business, but instead of a bar it’s HR Full Circle, where she helps organizations hire, inspire and engage their teams to make work better. She also stays busy raising 2 teenage sons, cooking healthy food that they refuse to eat as well as running, gardening, travel, trying to improve her golf game and spending time at the lake.

This session is sponsored by the Illinois Small Business Development Center at Champaign County EDC and presented in collaboration with Champaign County EDC and University of Illinois Research Park.
