Involving children and young people within the Interview
process
Effective and meaningful participation
is at the centre of all NCB's work. One of NCB's strategic aims is 'to ensure children and
young people have a strong voice in all matters that affect their
lives'. Every year we undertake a range of participation projects and one way we ensure that
we appoint the right staff for this work is by involving young
people in staff recruitment.
This DVD explains why is it right to involve young people in
staff recruitment; sets out the role of NCB human resources unit in
the process; and focusses on important issues such as encouraging
all panel members to ask additional questions and interact with
each other.
Developed by NCB staff, we hope it helps others learn, think
about and put into practice involving young people in staff
recruitment. It works for us, we hope it works for you.
