Perhaps the most typical interview. Takes place with two people: The Interviewer and the interviewee. The general idea of this type of interview is to decide if the candidate is the person the company is looking for and, of course, if the company meets the personal and professional requirements of the candidate.
In order to have a successful One to One Interview both parts must be prepared. A good interviewer should be able to analyze and assess not only the interviewee´s professional background and education but also his/her personality. Thus, an interviewer should ask the right questions in order to gather the necessary information.
Questions asked should be 100% related to the information you need to gather and don´t forget that as an interviewer you need to be confident and make your interviewee feel comfortable, otherwise you may not get the right attitude and answers, not only wasting valuable time but also making the candidate uninterested in the position.
Tips for interviewers:
Read body language from the very moment you meet the candidate.
Check manners.
Clothes should be the right ones for the type of interview and company.
Questions should be general and technical.
The candidate should support his/her answers with examples of previous achievements.
Trust your intuition.
Expect a thank-you letter.
Take into account school accomplishments in case your interviewee does not have much professional background.
