Selecting the best candidates for a job-position requires a cross-company tracking documentation during the interviewing process.
This article suggests the following two forms for employers:
1. Application form.
2. Post interview evaluation template/form.
The 1st form provides comprehensive information about the job description and the competency requirements – this application form serves the interviewer to know what to look for.
The second form can be used to select the job interview questions based on the competency requirements (behavioral, skills, experience and knowledge). This template/form may help the interviewer to evaluate the candidate answers after the interview – based on the importance of each requirement.
