Integrity, Honesty & Values (Behavior-Based Interviewing)

Integrity, Honesty & Values (Behavior-Based Interviewing)

Past actions are still the best predictor of future performance. So, stay focused on asking behavioral questions about job requirements. For example, if the job does require honesty, you might ask questions this, "When were you honest, even though it was embarrassing for you? What did you say?

Prepare Written Questions For Your Interview

Prepare Written Questions For Your Interview

Writing things down is important. And with written questions are part of your interview preparation, you have proof of what you asked the candidate and that you asked the same question of every candidate. Those are legal issues. Before you write questions, you need to do some preparation.

Probe for Specific Information During Interview

Probe for Specific Information During Interview

When an answer is a generality, self-promotional, not behavioral, isn’t complete or the candidate’s non-verbals don’t match what the candidate is saying, follow-up with behavioral probes to draw out more information. You discover that the specifics the candidate gives can be linked to job requirements.

The “Like Me” Syndrome (Behavior-Based Interviewing)

The “Like Me” Syndrome (Behavior-Based Interviewing)

The "like me" syndrome is like a bias. Over weighing the positives of a candidate because you have many things in common will usually lead to a less than optimal hire.

Regain Control of the Interview (Behavior-Based Interviewing)

Regain Control of the Interview (Behavior-Based Interviewing)

Seek Reverse Information When Interviewing

Seek Reverse Information When Interviewing

Reverse information is the opposite of what the candidate told you, or the opposite of your reaction to the candidate. It is designed to give you a broad sample of the candidate’s job skills and help you get new information to balance an overly positive or overly negative opinion of the candidate.

Managing Silence (Behavior-Based Interviewing)

Managing Silence (Behavior-Based Interviewing)

Being uncomfortable with silence during an interview may be the most common problem interviewers face, and most will just change the subject and move on. But look at it this way. When candidates are silent, it usually means they're thinking. That silence is your friend, your tool. If you change the subject and move on, you may be shutting down a revealing answer. So respect silence.

Non-Verbal Indicators (Behavior-Based Interviewing)

Non-Verbal Indicators (Behavior-Based Interviewing)

To uncover past behaviors from candidates, sometimes we need to follow "feeling" clues. Feelings point to the hidden parts of past behavior. And, of course, none of us are mind readers when it comes to reading feelings, but all of us can learn to recognize the non-verbal indicators of feelings.
