    A job interview is an interview consisting of a conversation between a job applicant and a

    representative of an employer which is conducted to assess whether the applicant should be hired.
    Interviews are one of the most common methods of employee selection. Interviews vary in the extent to
    which the questions are structured, from an unstructured and informal conversation to a structured
    interview in which an applicant is asked a predetermined list of questions in a specified order; structured
    interviews are usually more accurate predictors of which applicants will make suitable employees,
    according to research studies.

    The job interview is considered one of the most useful tools for evaluating potential employees.
