Weekly Recruiting Tip
Conducting A Twenty-Minute Job Interview
By Frederick Hornberger

With its increased mobility, constant competition for top players and instant dissemination of openings throughout the world, the current job market breeds an increasingly savvy crop of applicants. What's more, motivated job seekers can draw from innumerable seminars, courses arid books to hone their interviewing skills. The interviewer, on the other hand, probably holds as few interviews as possible to keep his or her staff up to strength.

When a candidates interviewing skills collide with the Interviewers urgent need to hire, he or she may be talked into making a regrettable decision. In the name of caution, the interviewer holds endless rounds of one-to-three hour interviews, and his or her work suffers.

Both pitfalls are avoidable. By taking a few common-sense measures, you'll spend less time interviewing than you do today. At the same time, you'll maintain control of your interviews, learn more and increase your ability to make the best hiring decisions.

The interview-for-hire process involves eight basic steps. Master them and you'll improve your decisions and free up your calendar.
