Tips For The Interviewer

by Mickey Mixon

We would usually think that tips for the job interview would only be intended for interviewees but there are also important reminders for those who are the ones asking questions, we call them interviewers. For applicants, they are the tickets to an employed you.

As an interviewer, should you roast interviewees to make them sweat and get nervous? Should you be very intimidating to put the applicant on edge? Should you ask fiery questions that might set them off?

* Before you conduct the interview, be sure to take note of the questions you are going to ask your applicant.

* Take note of the objectives you have, associate them with the questions you will be asking the applicant.

* See to it that the office where you are conducting the interview has no elements that could interrupt the interview.

* Never intimidate the interviewee. You want to know the person, do not put him on the hot seat where he would become intimidated.

* Let the interviewee speak, you have to be attentive so that you would be able to get important verbal and non verbal messages.

* Use questions that would reveal the motives of the applicant.

* Give the interviewees the chance to ask questions.

With these, you would be able to get what you really want to know from the interviewee. The most important thing is that you would not have regrets by hiring the wrong person.
