When the opportunity to hire arises, selecting the right candidate is one of the most pivotal decisions an institution can make in determining its future success. Unfortunately, student affairs professionals who are often tasked with leading and facilitating search processes are given little guidance related to staffing best practices. The primary goal of the presentation is to address that gap and equip participants with the information necessary to implement and facilitate effective and equitable hiring processes at their home institutions.
