Advice to the Interviewer

A dismal job market doesn't mean hiring managers can afford to alienate candidates with their search style, says a new survey of nearly 300 PRSA members from Tarzian Search
Consultants. The survey makes a case for corporate communicators to become more involved in the supervision of hiring practices company-wide.

Among the findings:

  • 80 percent of respondents say they have experienced bad interviews
  • 84 percent indicate this negatively affected their perception of the hiringcompany
  • More than 80 percent of the respondents shared their negative experiences with friends and family
  • Bad interviews made lasting impressions - on average, interviewees recalled the experience more than six years later
