The Modern Recruiter #38: How to create a structured interview process, with Adam Redlich, VP Talent Acquisition @Octane
Episode description
“In recruiting, trust your gut”. B******t.
Any recruiter worth his salt knows that it’s the best way to fall into every possible bias. Doing structured interviews is actually the ONLY way to recruit accurately. Now the question is how to do it.
Good news for you: I invited Adam Redlich, one of the first recruiters at Google back in 2003, to talk about it with me during a podcast episode.
Throughout his career, Adam has helped dozens and dozens of recruiters become better at their jobs. And for the past 3 years, Adam has been VP Talent Acquisition at Octane, where he has grown the company from 140 to 590 employees. So trust me: Adam gives battle-tested advice.
In this episode, I talk with Adam about:
-How to set up structured interviews in your company.
-The perfect number of steps to have in the whole interview process
-Specific topics to be covered in each of these steps
-Reference checks
