Candidate Post Interview Debrief
This Module focuses on enhancing recruitment practices by improving candidate debriefing techniques after interviews. It emphasizes the importance of this stage as a pivotal opportunity for recruiters to gain insights beyond basic feedback. Recruiters are encouraged to conduct thorough enquiries about the candidate's impressions of the people they met during the interview, the duties discussed, and the compensation package. Specific queries should extend to understanding the candidate’s potential compatibility with team members, their learning opportunities, task-related challenges, and any reservations or conditions they might have about the offer. The discussion points out common superficial debriefing methods and highlights the need for more in-depth questioning, such as understanding what would make the candidate accept the job or any specific concerns they might have regarding salary. Furthermore, it illustrates the use of strategic questions designed to probe deeper into the candidate's interests and decision making, ultimately securing an informed and committed hire. Overall, The Module underscores recruitment as a complex, skilled practice requiring sophisticated influencing and detailed attention.
