Make the most of reference checks. If you are interested in a candidate following the first interview, begin reference checking before their next interview. This allows you to address any specific concerns you have about a candidate and tailor your questions accordingly for the next interview. Be mindful that no one wants to be the reason why someone didn’t get a job, so ensure that you listen carefully to a person’s tone while speaking and ask them questions that require a bit of explanation. Close the interview properly. Finally, don’t leave candidates wondering what’s next. Outline the next steps and give them an expectation of timings. “In the end, asking the right questions throughout the interview process should provide ample information to assess each candidate,” explains Mapson Bone. “With enough information you can confidently choose the best person for your organisation.” For more tips on interviewer skills, check out the podcast page at http://www.roberthalf.com.au
