Popis: | We surveyed Human Resources (HR) professionals (N = 301) on their use of structure in employment interviews. We compared these data with research-based recommendations and with elements of interview structure considered important by Canadian Human Rights Tribunals. Contrary to research-informed recommendations, HR practitioners and Human Rights Tribunals appear to attach little importance to job analysis as the foundation for developing interview questions and to interviewer training. While Tribunals and the established research literature on employment interviewing favour standardization, this is of lesser concern to Canadian HR practitioners. Finally, there was convergence on valuing behavioural questions and note-taking, but not on valuing interview panels. Implications of our findings for research and practice are discussed.
