Session Description – Has this been your experience? “I felt good about the interview but I’m not sure why I haven’t heard from them” or “They asked a lot of questions that caught me by surprise”. You may have also received this feedback, “You were our second choice candidate for the position”.
With the slow but steady improvement in the economy, companies are starting to open more positions for full time hires. Budgets and new hiring decisions are still being heavily scrutinized by hiring managers. Organizations are beginning to invest in new approaches to improve quality of hires. We’ve seen organizations increasingly turn to Behavioral Interviewing as one of their new strategies to improve quality of hires and reduce premature turnover.
Behavioral Interviewing is based on the concept that past behavior will predict future performance. Organizations have become more methodical about identifying role specific profiles for success. They’re also able to associate success profiles to behavioral based interview questions. Interviewers are specifically trained to assess candidate responses in relation to behavioral success profiles. The candidate debrief process provides additional scrutiny when candidates are assessed in relation to behavioral based profiles.

Client Testimonials…
Steven Crenshaw
Statistical Programmer at PharPoint Research, Inc.
“Al is extremely knowledgeable in HR and will get results. After graduating I spent 6 months looking for a job in all the wrong ways. After working with Al I had an interview within two weeks and was hired two weeks later”.
Jeannette Theora
Clinical Trials Assistant, Quintiles
“During my final semester at NC State, the pressure to find a job became very real as my graduation date approached. As my job application process progressed, I realized that my interview skills suffered and had therefore prevented me from accurately presenting myself to potential employers.
I began working with Al Sullivan at Inspirus Consulting in order to improve my resume, writing skills, and interview skills. Al coached me to the various strategies and interview methods that employers use to screen for potential employers. He took the time to create Behavioral mock interview situations where he presented questions based on a position’s requirements and job duties.
My time with Al Sullivan helped build my confidence in my interview process and I was successful in securing a position at Quintiles as a Clinical Trials Assistant. I am extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to work with such an inspiring, and encouraging person who pushed and motivated me to work hard and take steps toward the career I desire.”
