Category: Conducting Interviews

The time involved in reviewing resumes, setting up interviews, and actually conducting interviews is a huge time commitment. No one wants to waste their time (yours or the candidate’s) sitting through another awkward hour-long interview that won’t lead to a good hire. As a hiring manager, there’s nothing more disappointing that being 10 minutes into a face-to-face interview and knowing this candidate isn’t the one.

What’s the alternative? I propose a 10-15 minute pre-phone interview.
