The Hiring Interview Is Not A Conversation
Many times in past articles and seminars I have stressed the poor validity of the unstructured interview in the selection process. Yet the unstructured interview is still the most common selection tool. Apart from being poor predictors of work performance, interviews are also the most underrated expense item of the selection process.
Because no ‘hard money’ changes hands, managers see the interview process as a ‘freebie’. It’s just amazing that a selection tool that is so poor at predicting performance and chews up such a large chuck of expensive management time is still the most commonly used and most relied upon!
Why is it that interviews often fail to meet the needs of the organisation, and the people being interviewed?
