Book excerpt: ‘Interviewing professionals’, today, are one of the most sought-after professionals by every organization. Choosing to ‘hire the right’ is a significant strategic decision and a necessity for any organization in creating a competitive advantage in today’s growing business environment. Therefore, interviews need to be objectively planned and conducted with the utmost care. As an interviewer, you are required to apply powerful techniques throughout the interviewing process to select the right, not necessarily the best. Behaviour-based interviewing virtually eliminates the chances of choosing the wrong candidate. Understanding attitudes, thinking styles, core competency and personality patterns are the key parameters that constitute the right hiring decisions. As professionals responsible for recruitment and as brand ambassadors representing the organization, the recruiters at all levels shoulder the key responsibility to bring about a positive transformation, select the right candidates for the right role from amongst a host of applicants and create value experience in the selection process. Interviewing is not just an art but a full-fledged science.
