Speed interviewing is a growing trend to not only maximize the time spent with candidates, but also to test candidates coping skills and ability to get along with others.
Likewise, speed interviewing helps the candidate determine how much they like various companies in a short term period, while allowing the company to meet with more candidates in less time.
Some things you can find out about candidates in a short period of time
– How they get along with others – have several people interview at once, but only put enough chairs for maybe 1 or 2 of the 3 to 4 candidates. See how they react
– Give two or three different types of interviews in a short period, and see if answers are consistent
– Determine their level of self-confidence and self-awarness by seeing how they react to many interviews in a short time.
