Some people believe that having interviews is the best way to find new employees for a company. Others say that there are better alternative ways to appoint employees. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Hiring the best employee is the most important part of any organisation. While many people believe that a face-to-face

interview

is the most appropriate way to select a candidate, some suggest that there are various other ways to hire employees. In my opinion,

interviews

are the best way to find a suitable candidate for the job and I will be discussing both views in

this

essay. On the one hand, when an

interviewer

conducts a face-to-face

interview

with the candidates, they can understand the overall

personality

and capability of the individuals. The

interviewer

can ask various questions to judge the candidate's intellectual skills, strengths, weaknesses and body language to understand their overall image.

For example

, during an

interview

, if candidates answer all the questions confidently with appropriate body gestures

then

the

interviewer

can easily understand their overall capability and

personality

.

Hence

, physical

interviews

help to understand a person in an effective way as their

personality

traits reflect during an

interview

round.

On the other hand

, there are other different ways to select an employee

such

as online tests, case studies or assignments. Though these methods are suitable to judge the aptitude level of an individual they cannot help to understand a person's strengths and weaknesses.

For instance

, when hiring engineers or technical experts, their knowledge can be assessed with the aptitude test or assignments but an

interviewer

cannot be able to understand their strengths and weakness.

Thus

,

such

methods are not effective to understand individual capabilities and finding the right fit for the company. To conclude, some people object that the companies should use other ways to find an employee for the organization

instead

of using the traditional method which is

interviews

.

However

, I strongly believe that to select the right person for a job, an

interviewer

needs to understand their capabilities and

personality

which is only possible in a physical round of

interviews

.
