What interviewing techniques help you improve as a recruiter?
People hire people. You get to know people through two-way conversations. Building relationships during the hiring process is critical. Instead of sticking to a script, I prefer to have a relaxed dialogue with candidates. You learn more this way. This style also creates a safe environment for candidates to share their experiences and value-added insights without feeling interrogated. Sure, I have a duty to collect information. However, if I notice someone's nerves are getting the best of them, I can always shift gears without compromising the integrity of the interview. If nothing else, we both walk away feeling heard and respected.
