Values Based Recruitment (VBR) is a

recruitment approach to help attract and

select employees whose personal values and

behaviours align with the values of Inspire.

Value Based Recruitment is away for Inspire

to get the right people, with the right values

in the right roles.

There are a number of reasons why our

recruitment processes are being developed

to ensure that we don’t just recruit people

for their skills and competence but also look

at their own values.

Evidence suggests that values based

recruitment is a good recruitment practice

and staff with the right values are more likely

to:

• Work efficiently in teams to deliver

excellent service user care

• Enhance the service user experience

• Experience greater job satisfaction

You may be used to a traditional competency

based interview, in which you are asked

questions related to your work-based skills.

Within your interview at Inspire, you will be

asked questions relating to our values.

For these questions, you will have to talk

about a time when you displayed the value or

behaviour, and what the outcome of this

situation was.

Performing well during value based

interviewing requires thorough prep

work.

By establishing your own values, you’ll be

in a much better position to answer your

interviewer’s questions.

In preparation, think about Inspire’s

values and reflect on what these values

mean to you. It will be useful to think

about a time when you may have

displayed the value for which you are

being asked.

The outcome of the situation is the focus

here; you should spend most of your time

discussing the learning or changes you

took rather than just a description of

what happened.
