How to Conduct a JOB Interview With Confidence! (Structure, Steps and Sample Questions)

Do you want to know how to conduct a job interview? In this video, you will learn how to conduct a job interview with ease and confidence. If it's your first time conducting a job interview or if you're just not sure what to ask, this video will guide you through the process with the structure your interview should follow, sample questions you can ask, and steps you need to cover in the job interview.

Job interviews can be stressful for both the interviewee and interviewer, especially if you've never conducted a job interview before. Most advice out there will be for the interviewee and how they can win the job interview. But, I want to focus on the manager or leader who is the one doing the interviewing. What questions do you ask? Should you start by asking the candidate questions or should you spend time talking about your company? Should you talk about salary in the job interview? And how do you wrap up the interview?

There are so many questions that new managers and leaders have about how to conduct a job interview and how to interview someone properly. This video will answer many of those questions for you. And give you the guidance you need to interview a job applicant with confidence!

Thank you for sharing these gems, I'm actually here because I'm being interviewed & I love to study before going into anything. Even if I have the experience, you can still become nervous.

I loved the idea to share some number of soft questions with a candidate to prepare and take stress level down a bit. Subscribing to your channel.

For the first time, I get to know you and your channel. From the first 3 minutes, I noticed your seriousness, passion, and desire to help educate others very well. I already subscribed and liked it because of the professionalism and politeness.

[MinaLovesLlamas]

I always wondered, what happens if we are the first filter of interviews and the interview is by phone. We already sent them the job description with the job duties and benefits by email. Is it necessary to mention them during the call? Also is there a difference 8?

[yourhelper]

If you are starting a new company, you're totally beginner and solo, who should you hire and and what planning can you do for them?

[bhimpokhrel]

Very impressive and great videos with amazing content delivery. I always love your body language and way of delivering the speech. Awesome. Keep shining Kara.
Please let me know if you are coming to Adelaide for any training course if any in future. I will be happy to get any training from you in a live environment.

How do you give out the questions to candidates beforehand?

[samuelculpepper]

I lost an amazing candidate last year because we took too long to send them the offer.

[kavithakavitha]

When you are attending an interview consider those who are conducting interviews are inferior in knowledge than you which could help strengthening your confidence even though interviewers are rich in knowledge than you

[codybrown]

I just love how you lose your accent when you say “hire” 😂
