Streamline Interview Process for Your Company

Hiring is the backbone of every organization and it is of utmost importance to streamline the process for smooth functioning. It lays a disciplinary impact on the candidates if you have a well-defined and streamlined interview process in place.

Streamlined Interview Process

Here is the complete process to interview a candidate for your company. From screening to hiring, this streamlined interview process can offer a pleasant experience to both the employer and the candidate.

Interview Rounds

The number of rounds in an interview process like written test, technical and skill test round, HR round plays an important role as candidates do not prefer lengthy and x- rounds of interviews. The process must be based on DPS i.e. well Defined, Precise and Short.

Interview Panel

Before recruiting a candidate, we need to select the interview panel. A good interview panel includes people who are either working at a senior level in that department or possesses the same technical/non-technical skill set required for the job. Having an interview panel helps in saving time for the recruiter as well as help the company to hire better employees.

Available Slots

Interview time slots are one big challenge for recruiters as they must map availability of the candidate with the interviewer. An HR personnel can ask the interviewer for their availability in advance and then fix the interview with a prospective employee. It will help to reduce back and forth follow-ups and chasing to schedule an interview. Vice versa, follow up with candidates to ensure their availability.

Accessible Database

Talent acquisition is a process where multiple resources are involved on various levels. Having a database in one place from where all the involved resources can access the required information helps in keeping everyone on the same page about the hiring status, else it becomes a lengthy exercise to keep updating everyone involved.

Putting a few extra efforts in checking every detail always play a positive role in the interview process.

• Arrangements for Skill Test Round – When conducting the written round in-house, arrangements of stationery or availability of desktop should be made beforehand.
• Skype/Telephonic Interview – Ensuring proper internet and telephone connectivity, before a skype or a telephonic interview will help in conducting the interview smoothly and in-time.
• Arrangements for Face to Face – In case of a face to face interview, always remember not to go looking for things at the last moment. If you wish the candidates to fill out forms, you should pre-arrange the stationary items for the candidates. Basic amenities like proper seating arrangement, drinking water etc. should also be in place.
