Competency-Based Interviewing

Competency-based interviewing is an approach that focuses on assessing a candidate’s skills and competencies relevant to the role by asking about past experiences and behaviors. The interviewer uses structured questions like "Describe a time when..." to determine if the candidate possesses the necessary skills, such as teamwork, leadership, or problem-solving. This method helps to assess a candidate’s suitability more objectively based on evidence from their experience.
