The employment interview: avoiding the traps with effective strategies.

Selecting well-qualified employees has become increasingly difficult for employers. Legal complaints citing discrimination and negligent hiring have made interviewers and organizations more vulnerable than ever. Also, predicted declines in the skill levels of employees will continue to make it difficult for interviewers to select applicants who best match job requirements.

The authors describe the traps interviewers face and highlight actions that can be taken by interviewers to avoid these traps and to improve the effectiveness of their interviewing and employee selection decisions.
