Creating a rewarding interview atmosphere for the recruiter and candidate

An interview is a valuable opportunity for a company to determine if the candidate, who may become the new member of their team, will assist in the future growth of the company. At the same time, it is a significant occasion which will determine their lives in the future. Candidates will often be nervous during the interview. For these reasons, it is extremely important for the recruiters to create an interview atmosphere for a rewarding interview for both sides. This article will introduce the points to be aware of when creating a good interview atmosphere.

Interviews are a place to “get to know each other”

Interviews are not only for the recruiter to get to know the candidate. It is also for the candidate to get a better picture of the company they my potentially be entering and better understand the work involved in the position they applied for involves. Recruiters interview numerous candidates and similarly, candidates often go through the recruitment process for several companies. Be sure to keep in mind that interviews are a place for the recruiter and candidate to “get to know each other”.

Bring out what is special in candidates

What recruiters look for are not people who are good at taking interviews but someone who has the abilities the business seeks and is a team player. During an interview, endeavor to help the candidate relax and bring out what is special in them. For example, talk about the weather, news, food, or icebreaker topics which do not have any direct relation to the interview. Being overbearing with questions will only make bringing out their good traits difficult.

Be polite and respectful

Just as how recruiters pay close attention to the candidates, they similarly observe the work environment they see on the way to the interview room and words and actions of their interviewer. In the first-round interviews, recruiters are the ones choosing the candidates. However, from the second-round interviews to the final stages, the companies may be the ones being chosen. Remember to be polite and respectful to the candidates from the very first interview so you do not lose outstanding candidates for this reason.
