Only with competent and committe d staff can a company hope to meet its objectives and realize its long-ter m vision promptly. However\, in the modern day\, it has become more diffic ult for recruiters to filter and identify suitable fits for their firm due to the convenience with which applicants may submit their resumes and the increased number of positions to which they can apply. The interviewer ha s a decisive influence in the selection of the final applicant for the emp loyment position. The interviewer is the unit that initially meets the app licants. They are the ones who can acquire insight into the candidate’s ability and willingness to work via the use of appropriate questions and t houghtful dialogue. This makes the role of the interviewer very important. \n\nWhat is the rationale for doing interviews? Interviews are an integral part of the employment selection process. The interview\, if conducted co rrectly\, allows the employer to assess if the applicant’s abilities\, e xperience\, and personality match the job’s criteria. It also aids the e mployer in determining if a candidate would fit into the company’s cultu re. Moreover\, organizing an interview will define the obligations of a jo b. If the interview process results in the employment of the best-qualifie d applicant\, it will assist the firm to reduce its long-term turnover cos ts.\n\nWhat are the many forms of biases that the interviewer must avoid w hile conducting interviews? Bias in interviews is when the interviewer mak es unwarranted conclusions about the applicant. Such prejudices might affe ct the interview. Both the halo effect and reverse halo effect are vital t o know. This is when a hiring manager makes an impression about a candidat e based on a single trait. When candidates are compared\, “contrast prej udice” occurs. It may create the appearance that one candidate is superi or\, while\, the advantage is relative. Gut feeling bias occurs when an in terviewer focuses exclusively on his or her first impression of an applica nt. Interviewers demonstrate approbation of a candidate’s response by sm iling and nodding leading to nonverbal behavior bias. A similar-to-me bias occurs when a hiring manager favors an applicant with comparable attribut es. Finally\, regency bias arises when an interviewer remembers the most r ecently interviewed applicants better than the rest.\n\nThe Professional I nterviewer Training Course has been developed by Xcelerate Training Instit ute in response to the need for producing professional interviewers as a s olution to increased turnover costs and inefficiencies.
