Our training blends instruction with hands-on practice. Participants have discussions with peers and take away templates, curated resources, and the confidence to support the growth of their businesses and organizations.

We equip you with recruiting basics for hiring managers with limited experience. Gain confidence in your selection and decrease bias.

Testimonials

  • "I truly appreciated the thoughtfulness of Florence and her partners. They invite active learning from participants.

    I know I’ll refer back to each of the webinars to review what we talked about and use the templates they provided! Particularly as senior staff of a small and young organization, and being without previous personal hiring experience, I learned and benefited so much from working with Kichocheo.”

    Leigh Sontheimer, Operations Manager, Corazon Latino.

  • ‘Florence led a workshop that I attended and it was one of the most valuable talks I've been to. Her advice changed how we do recruiting at my company, creating a more inclusive hiring process that led to a much more diverse team. Florence is the rare recruiter who truly cares about the companies she works with, and I couldn't recommend her more highly.’

    Sara Jeruss, COO, Quill.org

  • ‘I have been growing my small team for the past year. Right after I completed a training with Florence and Kichocheo about how to communicate company values and write a precise and effective job description, I had the opportunity to ask for a marketing intern from my alma mater.

    The intern coordinator requested a position description and I drafted it with everything I had just learned in mind. Her response: "This is perfect." She then sent me an ideal candidate, who I immediately hired, and who performed beyond my expectations. I understand now that finding your 'dream team' members involves so much more than drafting a list of what you want them to do.’
