Conducting Host Interviews

Host interviews should take about 30-45 minutes, and can be scheduled on Google Meet or Zoom. 

  • Usually best to save template as a copy and title with the name of the candidate and date of interview.
  • Save to shared interviews folder in Google Drive.
  • Jot down any overall thoughts in the Interview Notes section on the applicant's profile in Staff Master on Air Table
  • Enter interview date in the applicant's profile
  • Select how you felt about the interview from the drop down menu

Explaining "next steps" for candidates

  • If we have quite a few we are interviewing for one spot I tell them approximately when I will wrap up interviews so they have an idea of when they may hear back. Always encourage them to reach out in the meantime if questions come up for them.
  • If we only have one person interviewing for a location, I still tell them that I'd like to touch base with my team to discuss and then I'll be back in touch with them in a business day or two. Oddly we've found that offering in the interview takes them a bit by surprise and sometimes they say yes before really thinking the opportunity through.
