How Interview Has Changed Over The Years

Interviews is one thing that has been conducted for many years. It is something that most company do in order to hire the best candidate for the position. Even though, interview has been around for some time, the process and how it is done has change over the years. Interviews started as a two person having a conversation on the candidate, company and positon. Normally, this is done in person at the company in an office. With the changes in society and especially with technology growing, interviews are now being done over the phone, emails, videos and social media. Therefore, no matter what you are doing in society most places are conducting interviews, whether it’s for a job, intern position, any types of assistant and running for an office.

I have posted a job description for a human resource recruiter to help recruit more individuals to the position and the location.
