SUMMARY:Employer Accelerator: Skills-Based Hiring for Small and Mid-Sized Businesses
DESCRIPTION:Employer Accelerator: Skills-Based Hiring for Small and Mid-Sized Businesses\n\n\n\nCompeting for talent in today's market can be challenging. Hiring people with the right skills saves time and money. In fact\, research from the American Psychological Association shows that hiring for skills is five times more predictive of job performance than hiring for education\, and two and a half times more predictive than hiring for work experience.\n\n\n\nIf you are looking for better ways to identify and hire the right talent\, or if you consistently struggle to fill particular roles\, Crossroads Chamber has a solution. We are partnering with the ACCE Foundation on its upcoming Employer Accelerator for Small and Mid-Sized Businesses to help employers incorporate skills-based practices\, only $99 per attendee. Training will cover:\n\n	Casemaking and identifying skills\n	Defining skills and building job descriptions\n	Building an interview process aligned to skills\n	Sourcing\, selecting and onboarding\n	Practices beyond hiring\n\n At the beginning of the program\, each participant will choose a role that has been difficult to fill. During the virtual sessions\, they will develop a skills-based job description and interview guide for that role. \n\nThis program is open to organizations with 500 or fewer full-time employees. HR staff\, hiring managers and/or senior executives are encouraged to attend.\n\n \nClick here to apply today or learn more.
