Types Of Interviews In The Hiring Process

Interview is a common selection tool in the hiring process. Interview is intended to obtain oral information through response to oral questions. Interview can be structured one and unstructured one. In the structured interview, the interviewer prepares a sequence of questions in advance. In the unstructured interview, there is no set format.
  • Situational: In this type of interview the candidate is asked about questions regarding job related situations.
  • Behavioral: In this type of interview the interviewer checks the candidate past behavior in different situations by asking situation based questions. The logic behind this type of interview is that the past behavior is a good predictor of future actions.
  • Relational: In this type of interview the candidate is asked about job related questions.
  • Stress Interview: The interviewer tries to make the applicant uncomfortable by asking rude questions. The type of interview identifies the candidates who might be overly sensitive, or those with low or high tolerance.
