• Job interviews are critical to the quality of an organization's  people. Good job interviews processes and methods increase the quality of  people in an organization. Poor job interviews methods result in poor  selection, which undermines organizational capabilities, wastes management  time, and increases staff turnover.
• It's better therefore to focus on 'good' interview questions rather  than 'tough' ones. Good interview questions encourage interviewees to think  about themselves and to give the interviewer clear and revealing information as  to the interviewee's needs, capabilities, experience, personality, and  suitability for the job. The best interview questions are therefore the  questions which most help interviewees to reveal their skills, knowledge,  attitudes, and feelings to the interviewer.
