Interview: What it is


It begins with the theory of effective interviewing, followed by the skills required to put the theory into practice. We then follow the recruitment process from laying the foundations, by making sure that job descriptions, person specifications and application forms are fit for purpose, through the stages of sifting applications and short-listing for interview, conducting interviews and selecting the right candidate.
