Answer
Two types of interviews conducted by an enterprise in the selection of its employees are:
Structured or Patterned Interview — This interview is systematically planned in advance and is conducted in a pre-planned manner. The questions to be asked, the time to be allowed, and the criteria for evaluation are decided in advance. This is the most common type of selection interview. It ensures uniformity in evaluation as the same questions are asked to all candidates, allowing fair comparison. It is suitable when a large number of candidates are to be assessed for the same job.
Stress Interview — The purpose of this interview is to see how candidates react to awkward questions and difficult situations. The interviewer deliberately adopts a hostile attitude by asking questions rapidly, by criticising the candidate, or by interrupting frequently. The reactions of the candidate to stressful conditions are judged. If the candidate keeps his cool and responds calmly, he is selected. This type of interview is useful for jobs that involve high pressure and require emotional stability.
