Interview questions that lead to successful hires
"How to Develop Strong Interview Questions" focuses on how you craft strong interview questions and what types of questions you might ask. It also discusses how you can tailor your questions to the position to gather the information you need to make a successful hire.
Questions steer the direction of the interview. They can lead you to a dead end, or they can reveal new layers of a candidate’s experiences, passions, goals, attitudes, skills, and character. Asking the right questions can also shed light on discrepancies between reality and how a candidate portrays themselves on paper. You don’t want to find out later that the person you hired isn’t actually the team player you thought they were. Strong hires start with strong interview questions that you'll write as you go through this course.
