Structured Interviews and Selection
Captions available
The idea
A structured interview asks every candidate the same job-related questions and scores answers against defined criteria.
In practice
Two interviewers scoring the same candidate independently arrive at similar ratings.
Where people slip
Meta-analysis across 86,000 applicants found structured interviews more valid than unstructured ones. They are used less often.
