Course Content

Learn how to hire the best candidates by conducting behavioural interviews in this free online human resources course. Unlike typical job interviews, a Behavioural Descriptive Interview (BDI) gauges a candidate’s ability to navigate different work-related scenarios as demonstrated by their past experiences and actions. This human resources course provides employers with the skills and techniques required to find the best candidates. We explain how to prepare for behavioural interviews and identify the optimal BDI questions to ask before scoring the results.
