First of all, we get a lot of data about this.
Sometimes it confuses us when another professional interprets a technique that we know is right as completely wrong.
In fact, many ideas can be reasonable from different perspectives.
It is not possible to say definitively, falsely or definitively true on this subject.
Because there are many interview techniques.
Questions that are not necessary for some roles may be the most important questions for another role.
We want to examine and evaluate this issue by both the candidate and the professional conducting the interview.
Interview techniques for the candidate;
First of all, share sincere and accurate information, regardless of role.
Avoid giving false information.
Yes, sometimes there may be an urge to share inaccurate information in order to get the job.
However, let's not forget that a real professional can distinguish this, and when he asks a question about it, you will panic and have difficulty telling the truth.
Dress Code; Many job interviews are now held online, unfortunately candidates can sometimes get carried away by the convenience of this.
Although it is said that this has lost its importance on many platforms, the correct dress code is still one of the most important issues.
We recommend that you choose clothes that are as simple as possible and that will make you feel comfortable.
We can say that classic or casual clothing, which has been accepted for many years, is now the most ideal.
Talking too much or too little in the conversation;
Unfortunately, this still continues to be a problem.
Unless it is a very specific interview, the ideal interview duration is 30 minutes.
Sometimes this may take 10 minutes more or 10 minutes less.
This is not a negative situation.
During this time, you need to talk more with the human resources professional.
You need to know the topics you want to talk about in advance and speak accordingly in the interview.
If you have no idea about a topic you are asked about, you can express it clearly and finalize the topic.
Avoid giving unnecessary and tabloid information when talking about your previous experiences.
In particular, you can convey your competencies in detail.
If you are hesitant to continue the conversation,
If you think you will forget to explain some topics
You can also bring your CV to the interview.
When expressing wage expectations; Unfortunately, many candidates whom we do not observe avoid declaring this.
If it comes from the other side, there is no harm in sharing it.
If the number you want is above or below the position, the company can align it with you.
In other words, if the entire interview process is positive and the pricing is not astronomical for the company, they will definitely consult you on this issue.
Finalizing the meeting;
Lastly, when they ask you if there is anything you would like to add.
If it really doesn't exist, you can say no, it doesn't exist.
Or you can easily express that you are willing for this role.
Key sentence; Please be sincere during the interview and avoid giving unnecessary information.
FOR HR PROFESSIONALS;
First of all, although this interview is repeated many times a day for you, we recommend that you start the interview knowing that for many candidates it is either their first time or they have very little interview experience.
Candidates can often be excited and inexperienced in the interview. It is the responsibility of the Human Resources professional to calm the candidate and ensure that he or she expresses himself comfortably.
Another most important issue is that let's stop asking traditional questions that will lead nowhere.
For example;
Where are you from
Are you married
Even though these questions are no longer used in many brands, they still continue to be used.
When asking questions to candidates;
Of course, the required knowledge and experience must be confirmed.
But if a candidate says he doesn't know, we recommend that you do not continue on that topic.
After filtering the candidate's competencies
It is also useful to note whether a field with different potential is suitable for the position.
Many candidates, especially those with more limited experience, may not know exactly where to position themselves.
At this point, you need to know the needs of your company very well and also foresee the career management of the candidate.
Of course, continuing the conversation with some candidates can be difficult in many ways.
In such a situation, please do not give up on managing the island.
We recommend that you continue to pursue it with the same motivation.
When ending the interview, if you think there is something the candidate did not convey, you can give additional time.
And another one of the most important points;
Please provide transparent information to your candidates about their processes.
Don't be afraid to report it, especially if it's negative.
Let's not forget that you, too, have gone through the same processes.
You need to complete the interview knowing that each candidate has a different story.
Key Sentence; We recommend that you complete the interview in a friendly and conversational manner.
