Behavioral Based Interview

The interview is a behavioral-based interview. We believe past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior, and behavior that is more recent is a better predictor of future behavior than older behavior, and long-standing trends are better predictors of behavior than isolated incidents. We therefore have patterned the questions during the interview to solicit behavior patterns that indicate with higher predictability whether the candidate can perform the job as required. This type of interview is different from those you may have taken in the past.
