Youd better start by introducing yourself to the candidate in the interview.
2、 Give the candidate a hope. Dont fail him on the spot. I recommend that you briefly explain the decision-making process. I recommend that you briefly explain the decision-making process. The introduction helps the candidate to settle down and also shows a professional image. We are asking questions
3、to get information we want.,2.1 Sprsking Module,Direction: Four or five students in a team make group discussion and then make presentation with the help of expressions given for reference.,The questions include education, qualifications, work experience. We do our recruiting through a special consu
4、lting firm. We are going to see his character, his ability to react, his intelligence and his suitability for the position. It is important that the candidate is well presented, is neat and tidy and has a good manner. We ask the candidate to tell us a little bit about the company that were working f
5、or. We give them a period of 5 to 10 minutes to ask some questions. Then I go back to him and just let him talk about himself. When he is fully relaxed, Id put in one or two trick questions. The whole process lasts about 45 minutes to an hour.,2.1 Sprsking Module,Topic 2 Talk about training, interna
6、l transfers and promotion The company will send you to attend a language course. Every year one needs to attend the training program designated by the company. Training may include business etiquette, management, presentation skills, negotiation skills. The employees are usually promoted or transfer
7、red on the basis of performance and merit. Internal transfers or internal recruitment is good for motivation. We also take seniority into consideration. Ive been sent over to audit our branch in Britain.,2.1 Sprsking Module,I used to work as an account executive but transferred to be Personnel Manag
8、er. Benjamin joined the company as an electrical engineer but switched selling after four years. If some new project needs people, we may select people from different departments. Michael is now helping out in the Auditing Section. Sometimes you need to wait for someone to retire and get his job. Be
9、fore being promoted, your working experience, capability and communication skills are considered. Youve got good career prospects. Someone even has been invited to join the Management Board of the company.,2.1 Sprsking Module,A: With me today is Peter Williams from Kingston University. Welcome! Pete
10、r. B: Thank you. A: Peter, recently you have just launched your new book entitled Getting off on the Right Foot. Why do you entitle your book that? What do you mean by that? B: You know, many companies provide some sort of introductory training or orientation for their new employees. It may take the
11、 form of an older employee assigned to show the new employee “the ropes”. Or it may be left to the HR Department or the individuals new supervisor to show them where the coffee pot is and how to apply for time off. Some companies in highly competitive industries recognizing the value in New Employee
12、 Orientation (NEO) goes much farther.,2.1 Sprsking Module,Direction: Work with your partner on the following conversation Training Issues, using it as guide when making up your own conversation.,A: But there is a measurable cost to that training, how do companies consider its value? B: The technolog
13、y in the workplace is changing very rapidly and companies that cant keep up will drop out of competition. Let me show you some issues and background facts. A survey by the Ontario Skills Development Office found 63% of the respondents planned to introduce new technology into the workplace that would
14、 require staff training. However, the American Society for Training and Development reports that less than $1500 per employee was spent for training in 2010. The largest part, 49% of that was spent for technical and professional training. Only 2% was spent for New Employee Orientation and 3% on qual
15、ity, competition and business practices training. People have reasons not to do New Employee Training. You see, even at the less than $1500 per year for training an employee that was reported above, it is still a cost.,2.1 Sprsking Module,For some companies, especially those with traditionally high
16、turnover, it can be a major expense. If your profit per employee is less than $1500, it would be difficult to convince the shareholder that training is justified. Besides, we all know it is the responsibility of the school system to train people to be workers. And it is the workers responsibility to
17、 learn how to do a job so they can get hired.,2.1 Sprsking Module,A: Despite of such reasons for not doing New Employee Training, why do you perceive New Employee Training necessary? B: Not surprisingly, all the reasons not to train new employees except cost itself are actually reasons to do that tr
18、aining. If you have high turnover, training new employees will make them more productive. They will feel better about themselves and the job. They will stick around longer. The training and development knowledge, attitude and skills of the staff are fundamental to the continued efficient and profita
19、ble performance. And if you still believe that our schools provide adequate training to make students laboring ready, you are living in a dream world. Yes, some job seekers make the effort to learn on their own the skills needed for a new job, but most get that training on the job.,2.1 Sprsking Modu
20、le,A: You made an interesting proposal that has aroused many HR managers attention. Can you make a further explanation? B: OK, I recommend companies make training a stand-alone function, separate from HR. You know, a 20% increase in training expenditure since the 1990s has not kept pace with 24% inc
21、rease in workers in the same period. So I believe that training function is a profit center, not just a cost center. A: In your article cited above, you mentioned companies such as Sprint, Xerox, General Electric and General Motors. What is special about them? B: These companies have opted to establ
22、ish Corporate Universities, reflecting the importance they place on employee training. The value for smaller companies is inarguably even greater. And there is no better time to start employee training than New Employee Orientation.,2.1 Sprsking Module,2.2 Listening Module,Direction: You will hear f

31、ly-hired Staff Most employees decide whether to stay at their companies during the first six months at work. Unfortunately, not all companies put much effort into welcoming their new hires. Many hand them an employee manual and their computer passwords and send them off to their cubicles. Developing
32、 strong orientation and, later, “on-boarding” programs can mean the difference between keeping great employees and losing them to a competitor. Creating an Orientation Program Current employees can provide excellent input to help you develop your orientation program. Not only will you garner valuabl
33、e information, youll make them feel appreciated by including them in the process. Ask employees the following questions:,2.3 Reading Module,Were they made to feel welcome when they started their jobs? What would they have appreciated the first day that they didnt receive? Were they overwhelmed with
34、names, faces, and information? Were they given a main contact for questions and support? Did they understand what was expected of them from the first day? Were the companys values and mission explained to them clearly? Were the dress code, hours, and procedures clearly explained? Did anyone show the
35、m the bathroom? How to work the coffee machine? The local lunch spot? What do they think should be included in a first-day orientation?,2.3 Reading Module,Once youve gathered this information, powwow with your human resources manager about measures you can take to improve the current process. What i
36、s your current process, and what measures do you think will create a better first impression and experience for new employees, making them want to stay? Your orientation program should both welcome your new employees and make them feel useful right away. Theres nothing more demoralizing to a new hir
37、e than sitting in a cubicle for eight hours unsure of what to do or whom to ask for help. And youre unlikely to spark much enthusiasm if you require them to watch mind-numbing training videos all day. Make their first day fun, informative, and personal. Incorporating the following strategies will he
38、lp:,2.3 Reading Module,Give employees assignments related to their jobs the very first day. Often the first day is chaotic and unproductive. Providing new employees with something to focus on ensures they feel part of the routine immediately. Provide a cheat sheet with co-workers names, important ph
39、one numbers, and other pertinent information covered during the initial orientation. Assign new employees a “go-to” person who can serve as a mentor. New employees should be encouraged to ask the big questions (“Is this the correct way to do this task?”) as well as the little ones (“Um, where is the
40、 extra toilet paper?”). Ask other employees in the department to take new hires to lunch on the companys dime. This puts everyone in a good mood and helps new employees get to know their colleagues. Have a short “welcome” party in the break room, complete with a sweet treat such as doughnuts, cookie
41、s, or cakes.,2.3 Reading Module,Continuing Education Welcoming a new employee doesnt stop at 5 p.m. on the first day. Many companies stretch training and “on-boarding,” an HR term referring to programs that last from four to six months. On-boarding takes many forms. Some companies provide full-time
42、classes in necessary skills for the first few months; others offer weekly coaching to help new employees integrate. Still others use online, self-paced training programs. The goal is to make sure the hiring is successful for the employee and the company, ensuring a strong, long-term relationship. Th
