Recruiting High Achievers is a program providing a path towards hiring the best candidates through consistent behavioral questions, careful listening and probing. All organizations want high achievers, but don’t always hire the best people for the job. Jan Durrans, Executive Vice-president, Chief of Staff and Chief Performance Officer at AXOS Bank, discusses with Eve Ash her strategies for recruiting the best people. These include taking a holistic review of recruitment strategy (each element builds a more complete picture that allows you to come to your decision), sorting the problem-solvers from the problem bringers, asking probing questions and fact-checking interview candidates, and ensuring consistency of interview approach.
