A
job interview is a process in which a potential
employee is evaluated by an employer for prospective
employment in their company, organization, or firm.
During this process, the employer hopes to determine
whether or not the applicant is suitable for the
role. A job interview typically precedes the hiring
decision, and is used to evaluate the candidate. The
interview is usually preceded by the evaluation of
submitted
résumés from interested candidates, then
selecting a small number of candidates for
interviews. Potential job interview opportunities
also include networking events and career fairs. The
job interview is considered one of the most useful
tools for evaluating potential employees. It also
demands significant resources from the employer, yet
has been demonstrated to be notoriously unreliable
in identifying the optimal person for the job. An
interview also allows the candidate to assess the
corporate culture and demands of the job.
Multiple rounds of job interviews may be used where
there are many candidates or the job is particularly
challenging or desirable. Earlier rounds may involve
fewer staff from the employers and will typically be
much shorter and less in-depth. A common initial
interview form is the phone interview, a job
interview conducted over the telephone. This is
especially common when the candidates do not live
near the employer and has the advantage of keeping
costs low for both sides. Once all candidates have
been interviewed, the employer typically selects the
most desirable candidate and begins the negotiation
of a job offer.
