Why does this skill matter?

Run hiring, pay structures, benefits, employee relations and separation to the national standard, so HR decisions hold up when they are questioned.

A bad hire is expensive to undo, and most avoidable hiring mistakes start with an unstructured interview or an unchecked background. A consistent, documented selection process gives fairer decisions that stand up when they are questioned.
