Preparation for the Interview
  • Coordinate the interviews internally and pass the curriculum vitae to all people involved in the interview process
  • Read the file carefully before commencing the interview
  • Dress in accordance with company style (there shouldn't be a casual day if a candidate has to be interviewed)
  • Make sure that each interviewer has a clear definition of the position to be filled
Presentation
  • Explain the company structure/mission, even though the candidate is supposed to brief himself prior to coming, this can help put him at ease
  • Explain your own function within the company
  • Define the roles of the different recruiters involved in the process, explaining which aspects they will be evaluating
  • Explain the structure of the interview you are about to conduct
Content
  • Put aside all other problems or projects as you enter the interview room. Concentrate on successfully completing your interview
  • Despite all the courses you may have followed, and all the advice you may have received on how to conduct a good interview, don't forget to be yourself. The most important thing is to have obtained a maximum of useful information
  • Get the candidate to talk....Don't interrupt him, listen to his replies from the first to the last word in the sentence!
  • Take sufficient notes, but don't forget to exchange looks with your candidate.
Follow-Up
  • Having completed your interview and seen the candidate off, establish rapidly:
    - the list of skills brought by the candidate, and those which correspond to the position
    - the character match of the candidate compared to the company culture
    - your personal evaluation, therefore subjective, of whether you would like to work with the candidate
  • Pass your different observations either orally or in writing to the person coordinating the recruitment
  • If there are differences of opinion within the interviewing team, be prepared to defend your observations, whilst at the same time listen to your colleagues' views. A recruitment must be unanimous
  • Don't forget to appoint the person responsible for relaying the group's decision to the candidate
  • Don't forget to take references or request the intermediate party to do so
  • Should the outcome be positive for the candidate, ensure that he/she receives all the necessary information on the social benefits offered by the company
Moral
  • 60% to 70% of the recruitment will be based on the match between the candidate's personality and the company culture
  • It is easier for a person to acquire knowledge than to change his manner of being
