Wednesday, November 6, 2024
When organizations hire new people, can they really predict if their employees will be successful and engaged? We often look to one's previous experience as our gauge for predicting success and engagement at work.
In our final episode of season one, we'll hear from Chad Van Iddekinge about why we overvalue experience in our new hires and what else organizations can do to predict new hire success. Later in the show, we'll hear a fun story about an on-the-job learning experience from Tippie undergrad Eric Jensen. And finally, we’ll bring it all together with a Final Tip(pie) just for you.
