Interviewing Practices and Techniques
Course Overview
The objective of LegalWATCH’s Interviewing Practices and Techniques course is to train key personnel on sensitivities associated with the interviewing process and to provide techniques for interviewer to gather pertinent information to hire the most qualified candidate without exposing the company or interviewer to legal liability.
Key Highlights
The Interviewing Practices and Techniques course is divided into the following four modules:
- Module 1: Understanding Sensitivities Associated With the Interviewing Process. We begin this module with a discussion on legal sensitivities and long term implications associated with the interviewing process. As part of this module, we discuss provisions of various employment laws such as ADA, PDA and Title VII that directly impact how a company must prepare for and conduct interviews.
- Module 2: The Importance of Having an Updated Job Description. We discuss the necessity of having and using an updated job description to prepare for and guide the interviewing process. Included in this discussion is how to ask questions to obtain the desired information.
- Module 3: The Forbidden Fruit of Interviewing. We detail common types of information that cannot be asked during the interviewing process and areas of discussion that interviewers cannot engage in even if the interviewee invites and welcome the discussion.
- Module 4: Preparing For and Conducting an Interview. We conclude by preparing for and practicing mock interviews.
Key Benefits
- Participants will learn how to prepare for and conduct job interviews in a manner that will help them identify the most qualified candidates to fill job vacancies and without exposing the company to unwarranted liability.

Risk Mitigation WorldwideAfter attending many presentations on the subject of Legal Avoidance Training by highly qualified individuals, I can truly say that the LegalWATCH style of presenting and training was the best. From Officers of the company to line management, everyone who has attended classes have walked away with a greater appreciation for being better professionals in all that they do and have actually made changes to correct many of their bad habits.

Risk Mitigation WorldwideThe course really opens your mind to the importance of positive documentation. The part on e-mail was outstanding. I don’t think anyone realizes how critical sending e-mail truly can be.

Risk Mitigation WorldwideI entered the room thinking that both the subject and the presentation would be dry and of limited use. Boy was I wrong. This was one of the best courses I have attended.
