Developing Interview Questions

Your interviews are all lined up and now its time to develop some questions to ask the candidates that will soon be waiting nervously in your reception area.

The first thing to do is to take the job description and person specification and develop your questions from there. If this says that the person needs to have experience in a certain area, then make sure you ask about that and just work your way through.

Once you have come up with a list of questions its important that you ask them in the right way. Make sure that you dig deep into what the candidate is saying and don’t be worried about asking them to elaborate or clarify their answer.

One of the best techniques for asking questions is the funnelling technique. This starts with an open question then any probing questions then ends with a closed question.

Open questions - Normally start with how, where, when.

Probing questions - These questions ask for further details to make sure that you have all the information you need.

Closed questions - The closed question is simply just to clarify what has been said and a possible answer could just be ‘yes’ or ‘no’.
