RECRUITMENT & SELECTION CORPORATE COOKERY ACTIVITIES
Unique Cookery-Based Graduate Recruitment Assessment Profiling:
Identifying Ideal Candidate Traits
Selecting candidates is difficult, and any decision has long-term consequences. Assess potential employees through a unique channel of team interaction helping you to identify the perfect fit for your organisation.
TRADITIONAL RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION METHODS:
Such as interviews and aptitude tests can only go so far in confirming the right candidate for your organisation. This can be:
- Time-consuming,
- Expensive,
- Often fail to discover the true personality and skills of the candidate.
Why choose cooking as your recruitment and selection event of choice?
Our unique cooking-based assessments provide a fun and unexpected hands-on environment in which to observe candidates:
- Real traits in action.
- Team work ability under tight deadlines.
- Leadership.
- Organisation.
- Conflict resolution.
- Perfectionism.
Unlike traditional group assessments, cooking is a genuinely enjoyable activity that allows candidates to revert to their instincts.
Even unsuccessful candidates leave feeling inspired by your company.
With our innovative approach, assessors have a better chance of selecting the right person for the role.
