Selecting the Right Candidate

The head of the pharmaceutical unit of a global healthcare company had identified an accomplished scientist for a very senior executive position on her team.  But she came under fire by her manager and his manager who were pressuring her to hire someone else.

Using Nova’s competency-based interviewing technique to screen both candidates, she proved that her candidate was best suited for the job.  Everyone’s happy with her new hire who’s succeeding splendidly in the position.  The pharmaceutical unit head was so pleased with the results, she gave Nova’s materials to her husband to help him prepare for job interviews.
