Job-based interview scenarios

Questions & answers to measure the skills & behavior required in a particular job

Even if you’ve got a lot experience in interviewing candidates, it’s not always easy to identify which questions to ask. And once you’ve decided on a question, how do you determine which answers indicate a good job fit?

What if your interviewers had a job-based interview scenario?

Perhaps you or your line managers would find it valuable if someone did the question-design exercise for you. What if someone gave you an interview scenario with questions and possible answers that measure exactly what you’re looking for in a candidate?

  • Interviewers and line managers feel better supported in the interviewing process and are fully prepared to run successful recruitment interviews
  • HR feels more at ease that others would properly interview candidates
  • Identifying and recruiting high quality candidates would be easier

What exactly is a job-based interview scenario?

It’s a document with a series of questions, developed especially to measure the skills & behavior required in a particular job – hence job-based. 
For each question we provide indications and guidelines of how to evaluate the answer of a candidate. With the help of this scenario you’ll be able to identify the right candidate faster and with more accuracy, even without a recruitment background. 

How does it work?

  1. You provide us with a job description or published job ad
  2. We decode this information in concrete behavior and verify with you that this is what you’re looking for
  3. You confirm or adapt the desired characteristics
  4. We decode these characteristics in competency and attitude-based interview questions
  5. We incorporate the questions in an interview scenario with guidelines to evaluate the answers and what this means in regards to job fit
  6. Optional: We provide a workshop on how to use the interview scenario
  7. You use the interview scenario and can now more accurately assess candidates on the desired characteristics
