Dr. Gamini Hewawasam, the CEO of ManoLead/FineFinish Engineering/INT Terminal Travel Group, has been featured in the Forbes Expert Panel for his professional insight on “Evaluating Candidates Without Degrees.”
As businesses reconsider the necessity of college degrees for entry-level roles, hiring managers must find new ways to assess candidates without this traditional prerequisite. While a degree often signifies critical thinking and commitment, these qualities can be more challenging to verify without one.
Dr. Gamini Hewawasam, a member of the Forbes Coaches Council, was featured in a Forbes expert panel for sharing a strategy to assess non-degree-holding candidates. Dr. Gamini Hewawasam suggests that you “Prioritize A Harmonious, Collaborative Perspective”.
“When hiring without relying on degree qualifications, leaders should evaluate candidates for their harmonious perspective, actions, speech and lifestyle. Look for evidence of their ability to understand and integrate diverse viewpoints and collaborate effectively. Assess their communication style and lifestyle choices for alignment with team harmony and the organization’s values.” – Gamini Hewawasam, PhD, ManoLead NFP
