What is a Job Interview?

Job interviews are an essential part of any recruitment process. After identifying a shortlist of acceptable applicants, the interview provides an employer with a great opportunity to ask candidates specific questions in order to assess their eligibility for the position.

It also symbolises a specific area in the hiring process where businesses must use caution to avoid prejudice. During a discussion, subjective judgments based on particular personal attributes may be formed, consciously or unintentionally.

Job interview contract HR templates are documents that employers can use as a starting point when supporting recruitment and selection. These templates are designed to ensure that the employer manages job interviews effectively, and complies with current UK employment law.

Employers should always ensure that any job interview HR templates they use are tailored to their specific circumstances. It is also important to regularly review and update job interview documents to ensure that they remain relevant and effective, and reflect any changes in the needs of the business or legal requirements.
