How To Conduct A Competency Based Interview

http://www.aaronwallis.co.uk/how_to_cbi.php - Competency Based Interviewing is the most effective form of interviewing as it focuses on gathering evidence of required skills, experience and personal qualities, known collectively as competencies. The aim is to obtain information about a candidate's past behaviour and experience so that you can effectively 'score' and compare candidates against each other.




In essence it's a long and rather grand term for what effectively is an interview with questions that are in essence "give me an example of...." rather than "what would you do if.....". For example, "give me an example of when you've.....?" and "when have you not completed a project in time, what happened?"

To perform a Competency Based Interview will take around two to three hours of planning but hopefully you will notice that your interview are more worthwhile and have greater structure. Combining a competency interview technique with the Aaron Wallis psychometric profile and bespoke interview questions will help you make your hiring decisions based upon gathered evidence rather than 'gut feeling'.
