How to Nail the Interview—Hiring the Right Employees with the Right Interview Questions and Scoring

Recruitment is always a tricky part of HR, but there are ways to be more strategic in your approach to ensure a high quality of hire.

In this episode, we welcomed Casey Bailey, Head of People at Deel, to talk about recruitment and interviewing strategies. Casey and Anita Grantham break down their favorite interview questions to ask, how to decide which questions to prioritize, and how to approach different types of interviews.

Casey explains how you don’t always need a formal applicant tracking system, but you probably need a scorecard to measure the suitability of candidates for a role. We also look at how interviews for internal and external candidates may differ.
