Introduction
SCOPE
The purpose of this procedure manual is to adequately prepare an individual to successfully complete an interview. This manual will provide some important background knowledge on the interview process. It contains information on the difference between business professional and business casual attires , the “do’s” and “don’ts” of interview attire (supplemented by visuals), and the different types of interviews. For clarity and consistency, the best way to use this manual is to read it from beginning to end and to refer back to it to answer any remaining questions.
PURPOSE OF AN INTERVIEW
Interviews not only offer the employer valuable insight into a person’s personality and abilities but also allows you, the interviewee, to discern whether your credential and career goals match up with what the company is seeking. Interviews also seek to accurately assess competency, fit and motivation. On the employers standpoint interviews prevent good candidates from being improperly assessed. Overall an interview plays a vital role when searching to fill a position with a qualified and capable candidate.
Types of Interviews
1. Informational Interview
Interview where a potential job seeker seeks advice on their career, the industry, and the corporate culture of a potential future workplace; while an employed professional learns about the job seeker and judges their professional potential and fit to the corporate culture. Essentially building their candidate pool for
INTERVIEWS: Interviews are usually taken for people when they are looking for jobs or looking places in college and universities. There are many advantages of interviews, one being that they will be able to get good information and some data, also they will develop their communication skills too when talking to the other individual. However there are also many weaknesses such as, time consuming, the person being interviewed could be lying and also the questions may not be clear. Another weakness is that there could be a language barrier between the two
Like I stated before in the introduction, it allows to evaluate the different reactions of candidates; namely how they react toward a stressful situation and how well they respond to questions. It also allows to know whether a candidate is motivated about the job he/she is applying for. It then becomes clear or easy for the recruter to decide whether a certain candidate will be a good fit to the organization given his/her qualifications. Thus, this type of interview requires some preparation from the interviewer. The preparation is basically reviewing the EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity) laws that allow the recruiter to avoid any kind of discrimination, developing an applicant profile by means of competency-based, behavior-based and talent-based techniques, and finally assessing what applicants want in an interviewer (friendliness, honesty…) and in a position that they are applying for (environment and culture in the organization). On top of preparation, the recruiting interview requires some kind of structure. A good recruiting interview needs to be highly structured. Otherwise, it won’t allow the recruiter to get as much information as possible from the interviewee. Along with the type of structure, the recruiting interview allows to have a broad selection of question sequences. To be more specific, the funnel, inverted funnel and tunnel sequences are the mostly used to allow a smooth movement from
Interviews - This is often the second step in a selection process, it is often used after a group of applicants have been short listed and allows the recruiter or hiring manager an opportunity to ask further questions about an applicants experience and get a feel for their personality, and fit into the organisation and role.
The speaker of “How to Prepare for an Interview” explains key information that you should know prior to attending an interview. She provides us with details about three categories which are professional resume, knowledge of the company, and appropriate final questions. The speaker gives numerous details about how to prepare for an interview and her knowledge towards preparation.
Interviews are “a selection procedure designed to predict future job performance on the basis of applicants’ oral responses to oral inquires” (HR Guide to the Internet, 2001). Once the candidate is selected to interview, the hiring manager should determine the interview format, (unstructured, structured, situational, behavior description, or comprehensive), based on job requirements. Both LL and CCC should match interview methods with job specific requirements and have a prepared outline for each job description.
I have never given a formal interview. An interview is a two- party interaction in which at least one party has a specific purpose to seek out information (book). There are many important components to consider when developing an effective interview protocol. The first thing to do is establish goals (lecture). Taking into account the team organizational analysis paper in this class, my team will want a overview of Hudl’s organization, including its history, mission, organizational culture, and communication patterns.
Also, please remember this is a professional interview. You should be dressed professionally and also act in a professional manner!
The traditional job interview is flawed as it can be loaded with softball questions that are easy to memorize (Grahram, 2007). In other words, the questions can be answered with canned answers, which if one is hiring for an actor it might be a good thing but not if the company is hiring for an engineer. For example, I happened to overhear an interview while sitting at Tim Hortons and one of the questions was where do you see yourself in five years with the company. Furthermore, traditional job interview do not work due to the interview bias; humans have a biological preference to seek out others like themselves (Heffernan, 2012) As Lazlo (2017) pointed out interview who are trained will make snap judgments when running the interview often in the first 10 seconds of the interview. Also, the traditional interview falls because of the interview technique, perception, and abilities to access the situation due to his or her ego may be more inflated than their abilities (Heffernan, 2012).
The purpose of the interview was to serve as an opportunity for me and other classmate to practice and observe the basic communication processes that are involved in such interaction using the Basic 7 Questions. As a student pharmacist, I know the first impression with patient is important, so I dressed up professionally with black dress and the white coat.
I structured this paper by giving you the insight about all the question I asked and the responses I received, ending it off with the list of facts I learned and knowledge I gained throughout the interview.
An interview can be one of the best experiences. The interviewing program we have developed will be taught through slides, presentation, systematic activities, and skits. Individual folders will be handed out including pictures that will demonstrate how to wear the right clothes for the interview. The skits that some of participants in the session
According to Wimmer and Dominick, Interview is the verbal conversation between two people with the objective of collecting relevant information for the purpose of research. They can be held one-to-one or in groups, face to face or by phone, Video conferencing, or email.
Answer:- It is all communication between the interviewer and responder to get information about what others thinks and also a way of getting knowledge of each other by asking questions and giving feedback about product or anything else.
The employment interviews is like an informative exchange vehicle between the interviewer and the applicant regarding the an applicant's interest basing on the job suitability as per the employer job which is on offer. It is a conversation controlled between the applicant for the job and the employer or someone representing the employer. The specific aim of this selection process to the interviewer are to make sure that it has given out further information about the job and the organization and also to ensure that the process is as fair as possible (Jackson, Schuler & Werner 20012) .
