Planning Ahead

The right approach to interview questions defines the hiring process. A poorly organized set of questions can take your interview in the wrong direction, causing you to miss important details and choose the wrong candidates.

Structured interviews can predict performance about 26% of the time while unstructured interviews can do the same only 14% of the time.
