HOW I BUILD AND RUN BEHAVIORAL INTERVIEWS

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Well-structured behavioral interviews can be highly effective in evaluating candidates. They should have a clear rubric to evaluate specific skills and target up to three core skills to understand deeply. The most important part of a behavioral interview is getting the candidate to explain situations in detail. The more details, the harder it is to fabricate a compelling answer. The criteria for success for an interview should be determined in advance so the subjectivity of a gut feeling is removed later.
