00:00:00.667 --> 00:00:03.884
Wow! You've given me
so much to think about.

00:00:03.894 --> 00:00:07.004
Yep. Structured Interviewing
is really effective…

00:00:07.014 --> 00:00:08.404
if you follow all the steps.

00:00:08.414 --> 00:00:10.804
Oh here… let me see
if I can take a stab at it.

00:00:10.814 --> 00:00:14.199
I begin with comfort building
questions and discuss the job.

00:00:14.534 --> 00:00:19.564
Then, I ask about past-behavior
to project future performance.

00:00:19.574 --> 00:00:22.432
I insist on specifics and...

00:00:22.442 --> 00:00:23.949
allow silence.

00:00:24.484 --> 00:00:26.259
I take brief notes.

00:00:26.644 --> 00:00:29.321
I maintain control with new questions.

00:00:29.894 --> 00:00:33.404
I ask for contrary evidence
to get complete information.

00:00:33.414 --> 00:00:34.846
And finally...

00:00:34.856 --> 00:00:38.811
I evaluate the candidates' answers by
comparing them to the job requirements.

00:00:39.534 --> 00:00:40.964
Does that cover it?

00:00:40.974 --> 00:00:42.109
Yah. Just about...

00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:44.884
But don't forget to check out
your cognitive perspective

00:00:44.894 --> 00:00:49.239
and rule out any gut feelings
based on your own past experiences.

00:00:49.711 --> 00:00:51.924
It takes time to build this awareness,

00:00:51.934 --> 00:00:53.734
but it can help you learn to be objective

00:00:53.744 --> 00:00:56.751
about your evaluation of a candidate.

00:00:57.499 --> 00:01:00.386
Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to
take up so much of your time.

00:01:00.396 --> 00:01:03.444
Oh, No. No. I… I… I asked you
to chat and I'm so glad you did!

00:01:03.454 --> 00:01:06.714
This has been so interesting
and so helpful.

00:01:06.724 --> 00:01:07.524
Good.

00:01:07.534 --> 00:01:10.114
So, do you live here or are you
visiting our wonderful town?

00:01:10.124 --> 00:01:11.499
Oh, I'm visiting...

00:01:11.509 --> 00:01:14.244
ironically, instead of doing
the interviewing today,

00:01:14.254 --> 00:01:15.174
I am going to be interviewed.

00:01:16.184 --> 00:01:18.884
I hope they’re well prepared for ya!

00:01:18.894 --> 00:01:22.147
Thanks. I just hope they know
about Structured Interviewing.
