Types of interviews
Group
A group interview represents the moment when a number of people (candidates)
take part of an interview process at the same time. This happens when Nestle
interview more than 1 candidate at the same time. Nestle will provide
information about the job to all the candidates that are involved in the interview
process. This method of interview allows Nestle to see how people relate to each
other. Also, this method is a very good one for Nestle if they want to compare the
candidates properly.
Individual
Nestle carries this type of interview through telephone or face to face. Usually
when Nestle wants to employ a new worker in their factories they firstly
interview the candidates through telephone and if they are pleased by the
person, they will call him/her at a face to face interview. The telephone interview
has many advantages, for example this time and money saving for both parties
(employee and employer). The disadvantage of an interview that is realised
through a telephone is that the employer (Nestle) cannot analyse and evaluate
the body language of the person interviewed.
Team/Panel interviews
This type of interview involves more than 1 interviewer; a panel of experts from
different fields will be used for this type of interview. For Nestle, there are some
advantages in conducting panel interviews. It boils down to the viewpoint as the
involvement of multiple interviewers increases the accuracy of assessing a
candidate’s match for the position. There can also be some advantages for the
candidate as the Panel interview gives him/her the chance to clarify points or
explain him/her expertise in more detail. With multiple questions from different
perspectives, he/she has opportunities to discuss knowledge, skills, and
experience that otherwise would not come to light. Usually, Nestle use this type
of interview for important position in the company, such as Director of Finance.
Types of assessments
Psychometric tests
Psychometric tests are those that try to measure intelligence or personality type
to assess how suitable a candidate will be at a job. These tests could be multiple
choice tests that are made directly on paper or also online.
