The interviewing process can be complicated. Interviewers — and the experience that goes along with them — can come in all shapes, sizes, and quite often, personalities. So, how can candidates be sure they are reading each situation appropriately? And how can they ensure they land the job in the end?
To help you, we compiled an infographic that illustrates how job seekers can read the most common types of interviewers and how to succeed in the process. Some takeaways to note include:
- The typical phone screen takes 30 minutes
- The average duration of an interview is 40 minutes
- 60% of managers conduct video interviews
- Department heads are more willing to spend 1 hour in a group interview of 12 candidates than to set aside 12 hours for one-on-one conversations
