Talk about your interviewing technique(s), talk about how you screen candidates and push them to the next level in the hiring process. Are you willing to ask thorough questions to verify information and discover additional details of a candidate's experience claim?

Jezreel Ramirez

As I screen candidates and listen to them reference a job skill or a project that they have performed, I tend to review their resume, check employment dates and ask additional penetrating questions to make sure I understand how they attained their skills. If a candidate is reluctant or not willing to answer in detail this request, it raises a major red flag for me and I will intentionally ask for more details on other questions.

As a recruiter, you must be able to discern truth from lies, candidates may provide a good looking resume, employment history with possible gaps and you must invest time during the initial screening call to review the accuracy and validity of the information.
