Interview form the basic selection criteria for most large companies. However some people think that interview is not a reliable method of choosing whom to employ and there are other better methods. To what extent do you agree or disagree.

Many multinational companies take interviews to select their employees; however some people opine that other methods are better as compare to interview. While i admit that there are other methods which are equally good, i disagree that interview is an unreliable method There are two methods with varied advantages. One selection method is written test. This method is preferred to judge the therotical knowledge of a person. Another method is group discussion. This method is best for a job which requires conversational skills like sales job. Group discussion can determine the convincing power of an individual. However, in my view, interview is a best method to recruit employees. There are many reasons why interview is preferred by some companies. Firstly, personality traits and social skills can be judged by interview. There is face to-face conversation while taking interview, and applicants have to answer impromptu questions which help employers to judge employees traits such as ability to handle pressure, confidence and ability to think outside the box. Last but not least, this method is most through of all the methods checking everything personal skills to knowledge. In conclusion, although there are other methods which are also good, interview is a best method to recruit employees.
