As the success of an organisation depends on the calibre of the individuals
working within it, selecting employees is one of the most important decisions
an organisation faces. Not only do the people involved in the recruitment process
have to establish whether an applicant has the relevant skills, experience and
potential for the job in question, they must also observe the many legal
requirements relating to staff recruitment. This workshop will enable delegates
