Testimonials

I have participated in other online training programs and found this one to be superior to the others in more than one way. First, the training was more interesting and engaging. The short video clips enhanced the learning through real-life experiences of people who were interviewed. This really brought the material to life for me. Second, the training was well-organized, with modules and sub-sections that made practical sense. That made it easier to follow. Third, I appreciated your use of scenarios, giving examples of hiring managers and applicants who were in situations that helped illustrate the learning concepts. It caused me to think more deeply about the many facets of culturally diverse interviewing and caused me to be more open to the techniques that were taught later in the course.

I would recommend this course to any HR practitioner, hiring manager, or anyone who conducts interviews in the course of their work. As I have been interviewing people for more than 20 years, I am confident that even folks who consider themselves strong in interviewing will see a benefit from this and gain new skills that they can use immediately.

- Maxine, HR Consultant, Employers Association, Inc., Minneapolis, MN

I thought your online training was great. I can see us utilizing this as a training tool for managers and supervisors who conduct their own interviewing. I really liked your approach -- how you started with information and then moved on to provide information on how to re-phrase interview questions to be more inclusive, and then you ended with writing down action steps for the individual and organization. In addition to the structure of your training, I liked the critical thinking questions. They really helped me evaluate my own interviewing skills, the people who should be included in interviews, the interview questions, and the things my organization can do to highlight our respect for diversity. I hope that I can work with you again in the future.

- Pang, Associate Human Resources Representative, Federal Reserve Bank, Minneapolis, MN

This is basic, common sense training that can be put to use immediately by anyone or any company that goes through the course. Good, real life examples and videos to help drive the message home not just from the interviewer’s perspective, but most importantly from the applicant’s point of view.

- Becky, Vice President of Human Resources, The Integris Group, St. Paul, MN

I felt like the concepts/ideas were presented very well. The use of examples was nice and brought the situations out into the light. I found the questions that potential employees may have for the interviewer interesting, which made me want to go out and do some additional research in this area. I liked the examples and the different ways to approach them. This course will be very beneficial to those who can not take the time to sit in a classroom.

- Heather, Recruitment Specialist, Health Care Industry, Minneapolis, MN

Being a recruiter, a diversity class facilitator, and a trainer for behavioral based interviewing, I found your online training to be all-inclusive. I found it to be very interesting and helpful - you certainly didn't miss anything! It was very user friendly and easy to navigate. In addition, the interface had a very pleasant look and feel.
