Unlock Hidden Talent: Assessing Transferable Skills
The best person for the job might not tick every box on a traditional resume - but they might be exactly what your team needs. If you're only hiring for experience, you're missing out on potential. This Learning Path will show you how to spot it - and hire for it. Learn how to break down roles to their essential skills, confidently assess candidates with unconventional backgrounds, and design a hiring process that reveals talent others overlook. You'll walk away with practical tools to reduce bias, structure stronger interviews, and market your roles to attract the right people - no matter where they come from.

By the end of the Learning Path you will be able to:
Decompose roles into essential skills, behaviors, and outcomes, then translate them into clear success profiles and hiring criteria.
Confidently assess candidates from unconventional backgrounds using structured rubrics, work samples, and scenario-based evaluations that verify transferability and learning agility.
Reduce bias and variance by standardizing interviews, questions, and scoring guidelines, and by training interviewers to focus on evidence over pedigree.
Attract overlooked talent by rewriting job ads around skills and impact, widening sourcing channels, and showcasing growth pathways that signal openness to nontraditional experience.
Missions in this Learning Path
