Interviewing Skills Training for Interviewers
The most used selection process in recruitment and selection is the interview and the most common type of interview used is the unstructured interview.
The unstructured interview is an interview where the interviewer has received no training on how to prepare and conduct a selection interview.
Yet the consequences of getting it wrong are enormous:
- Wrong person in the job
- Bad customer care
- Loss of customers
- Loss of key staff
Interviewing Skills Training
You need to provide your people with interviewing skills training so that they use the most up-to-date techniques available to gather the information they need to make an effective decision about each candidate.
We train people using behavioural interviewing skills training.
This style of interviewing uses the psychology of human behaviour as a base. People are creatures of habit and are likely to replicate their behaviours. So if a person has behaved in a certain way in the past in a certain situation, then there is a probability they will behave in a similar way in the future given a similar situation.

Interviewing is a process that has to be carried out professionally. The implications of getting it wrong can be very expensive. So, you need to consider accrediting your interviewing skills training.
Attendees will have to achieve an agreed standard in order to be “qualified” to carry out interviews.
The Institute of Training and Occupational Learning underwrites and assesses the accreditation.
