#HRhelpdesk #IndiaHRGuide #MandeepSingh, Interviewing is often assumed to be easy, but it’s a specialised skill that requires training. In this episode, Mandeep Singh explains how managers can conduct effective interviews even without formal preparation. The goal of any interview is threefold: verify the authenticity of the candidate’s credentials, assess their ability to deliver on job requirements, and understand their motives for joining your organisation. Clarity on these aspects helps avoid mismatched expectations and costly hiring mistakes. Mandeep shares practical approaches, whether competency-based, fact-driven, or predictive questioning to gauge fit and performance potential. He also emphasises probing deeper into a candidate’s philosophy on jobs, career shifts, and long-term goals to uncover alignment with organisational values. This episode is a must-listen for leaders and managers who want to make informed hiring decisions without relying solely on HR expertise.
