Considerate job interviews enhance institution's image.
A well-planned, considerate interview process for executive and middle-management job candidates leaves applicants with a favorable impression of the organization. Actions the recruiter can take to ensure a candidate's positive attitude include: Sending the out-of-town candidate a packet that includes a city map and information about the city, the facility's employment policies, and a job description; Planning activities for a spouse accompanying a candidate; Providing an opportunity for relaxed conversation by taking the candidate to dinner the night before the interview; Limiting interviews to three or four; Reimbursing the candidate for travel and lodging; Giving the candidate a tour of the facility. In addition, the recruiter should coach those conducting interviews to promote a relaxed interchange and allow candidates to ask questions.
