#300 How to get the best people in the right roles in the fire service with Occupational Psychologist Hannah Valance
from Firefighter Podcast · host Pete Wakefield
Many of us will have sat through an interview, promotion board or similar and thought "who put this together". Despite best intentions some of them are a shambles with very little consistency and not driven by data or experience. It might be the first time that person has ever interviewed anyone and has had 30 minutes of training on how to mark the "tick sheet".These things are also resource heavy, time consuming and expensive and getting this wrong causes disengagement, damage to moral, grievances and at worst great people not joining or progressing in the sector. So how to get the best people in the right roles in the fire service.
