Five Essential Tips for Interviewers
Connecting With Candidates and Making Smart Hiring Decisions
Thursday, February 29, 2024, 1pm EST
Event Overview
Interviews can be tense and uncomfortable, no matter which side you’re on — sometimes for both the interviewer and the interviewee. Few of us have had anything resembling formal training on conducting interviews.
Every organization needs good interviewers. If you’ve done it right, your candidate decision becomes easier and you’re more likely to have chosen the right person for the job. Your top choice will be excited to join your team — even runners-up will feel like they participated in something worthwhile.
Conducting a thoughtful and truly effective job interview is no simple task. It’s highly nuanced and takes skill — but with a few pointers, you can become better in a short time.
In this brisk and focused discussion, JR Keller from Cornell’s ILR School will review five specific actions you can take to make better interviews a reality for any job for which you are hiring.
