Getting into the Mind of the Hiring Manager

Although technology is engaged in many ways in the hiring process, those systems are programmed by people who have their own ideas and assumptions about what makes a candidate the best fit for a role. And once you get past the systems, there are more hurdles to navigate with the hiring team. A human will ultimately make the hiring decision. Understanding the psychology of the job search, specifically what the hiring team is looking for (which may surprise you!) gives candidates a distinct advantage. In this course, Dr. Dawn Graham gives you a behind-the-scenes view of the hiring process and how to think like a psychologist to overcome human biases and misperceptions. With the advantage of getting into the mind of the hiring team, you’re much better positioned to create a job search strategy to bypass hurdles and land the job.
