Conducting Interviews Certification

Conducting Interviews

The process of conducting interviews is a highly nuanced one. When a company wishes to find and employ a new individual for a job vacancy, there is a process of action that needs to be taken to both efficiently and fairly source the right candidate.

In the middle of this hiring process, is the interview itself – but to be a successful interviewer, you will need to understand the full extent of recruitment and recognise what it takes for a job applicant to become an employee of your company.

In this course, you will learn everything you need to know to be an effective communicator, a patient and active listener, and a good, fair selector when it comes down to choosing the right candidate. You will learn the basics of interview styles and formats, as well as job vacancy preparation, and how to create the ideal candidate profile.

You will also learn about how to maintain rapport during an interview, how to create both structured and unstructured interview formats and what the most traditional and useful interview questions are.

Finally, you will learn about discrimination, and discover what it takes to show equality and inclusion in conducting your interviews and making that final selection.

What you will learn:

• The different types, styles, forms and techniques of interviews and how you can cater them to your specific need.
• How to avoid discriminatory behaviour, and conduct interviews that promote equality, diversity and inclusion.
• Ways in which you can specifically structure behavioural interviews to find the perfect candidate for your company.
