We are rapidly moving away from the days of “get them in and we’ll take a look” attitude. Often for the candidate this means taking time off work which can be difficult, or at least for them to incur significant costs of travel etc.
The solution is relatively simple and certainly cost effective. In essence why not qualify your shortlist by getting candidates to undertake pre-employment online skills testing? If a candidate does not meet your criteria you can manage the process more efficiently than getting them to turn up for an interview for a role that they were not suitable for the role – or where there were many other candidates who had a better skills match.
