Anyone who conducts an interview should be trained on the right way to prepare and conduct an interview. Some people approach the interview like a casual conversation, others grill the applicant on technical skills. Others focus on the deficiencies of a past employee or ask irrelevant or personal questions. Some ask overly common questions like “what’s your greatest strength or weakness?” or worse, unlawful questions like “do you have any kids?” or “what kind of last name is that?”

Some managers provide ambiguous directions to employees only to be disappointed with the outcome. To ensure that your employees understand how to do a task, they need to understand why. Follow these guidelines for better training experiences for both you and your staff.
