The following guidelines have been developed to assist Chairpersons of Selection Committees in facilitating an interview process.  

1. Welcome the candidate
   
2. Introduce Selection Committee members and how they interact with the candidate's position.
   
3. Outline the process of the interview:

• Give a brief outline of the position and its relevance within the Office/ Division;
• Mention that a number of questions will be asked in relation to the selection criteria;
• Explain that at the end of the interview the candidate (if not already asked during the interview questioning) will be:
• given an opportunity to ask questions of the committee
• be advised of when the Selection Committee is likely to make a decision and when the candidate is likely to be contacted.

    4.    Ask the candidate if they have any questions before commencing the interview.

    5.    After interview questions, provide the information on when the candidate is likely to hear of an outcome.

    6.    Ask the candidate if they have any questions.

    7.    Thank the candidate for their application and time for coming in to attend an interview, presentation etc.
