In my current role as a Human Resources Associate at a corporate firm in New Delhi, India, one of my primary responsibilities is conducting interviews.
Right off the bat, my strategy begins with setting clear objectives. I believe that having a clear purpose and goals serves as a guiding star throughout the interview process. The questions I formulate are tailored to align with these objectives, allowing me to gather the necessary data.
My approach also involves proper questioning techniques and active listening. I opt to ask open-ended and relevant questions that prompt the interviewee to open up and provide honest, meaningful responses. I ensure a keen ear to every answer, capturing good points and identifying gaps for follow-ups.
Most importantly, as an associate, I always provide constructive feedback to the interviewees, offering value to them, irrespective of the interview's result. This aspect of my strategy has given me a reputation as a fair and effective interviewer.
