Consider use of closed questions;

useful if facts required but may limit ‘flow’ of

conversation required to elicit evidenceSummarise to clarify understanding;

ensure that both parties have the same

interpretation and expectations19

MSA question

the event

3. Who else was involved, what was his/her/their role?

4. What was your function (Position, title)?

5. Why is this event a good example of a time when you

(rephrase the questions that was asked)?6. What were the major milestones, ask for 3 to 5 key actions

“bullets” to describe the steps the candidate took

7. What was the outcome?

23

Some Interviewing TipsPhysical setting should be both private and comfortable

Mental setting should be one of rapport

Start by welcoming the candidate and introducing any other interviewers

who may be present

people;

talk;

Listen attentively

Exercise:

First ImpressionsWhat are your first impressions of these people?

Be aware of the judgements you make about people26

28

Situation or Task

Action

S

T

A

R

Situation/Task

It explains the background or context of the event/situation

and what role the candidate played under a certain

situation or task.

What is the event/situation about?

What was your Role/function (Position, title)?

29

ActionsIt details what the candidate did or said in response to

the SITUATION/ TASK. This is the “meat” of the

candidate’s response as it tells us about the

candidate’s behaviour.

What were the major milestones/ key actions

“bullets” to describe the steps the candidate took

30

ResultsIt details the outcome achieved/ reached

as a result of the candidate’s actions

under a given situation or task.

What was the outcome?31

True Versus Incomplete Stars

TRUE STAR –All components; Situation/Task, Actions taken and the

Results are clearly identified

INCOMPLETE STAR – Also known as FALSE STAR, where one

or more of the components of A TRUE STAR is missing. This will require that

you dig deeper when probing and transform Incomplete stars to complete stars.

Remember : Select with fairness and reject for a reason

32

Incomplete Star

VAGUE STATEMENTS – might sound good but don’t provide

any specifics about what the candidate actually did.

OPINIONS – Candidate’s personal beliefs or views, how they feel

about something but does not provide information about what they actually did.

THEORETICAL/FUTURE ORIENTED

STATEMENTS – the candidate says what they “should”, “would”, or

“could” do or “would have liked to do” but not on what he/she actually did.

33

Exercise:

Delivering the InterviewIn pairs, VBI practice and feedback

• Choose 1 value each and define your question

• Interview each other

• Record observations and commentary

• Provide Feedback to each other

–Group Feedback

–Record reflections or key notes.34

36

Actions can also be taken as inaction – what the person did not

say or do in a certain situation.

You can get STAR in any order – RATS, ARTS

Watch out for words like “we”, “the team”, “our unit” – you need to

establish what the candidate’s role was.

Watch out for words like “would”, “should”, “could” – strong indication

that they have not actually done.

Words like “typically”, “usually”, “generally”, is an indication that

they could be giving you FALSE STAR

Using the past tense is a good indication that they are

giving you a TRUE STAR. Using present tense is a good indication that

they have not done it yet.

Best Practice Selection

37

Standardisation

– All applicants experience same process; assessed using the same

methods, against the same criteria; standardised documentation.

Fair and Defensible

– Clearly defined selection criteria; competencies and criteria developed via

role analysis to ensure accuracy; trained assessors to implement process

consistently to ensure defensibility.

Reliable and Valid

– Multiple assessments by multiple trained assessors; evaluation of selection

processes; standardised scoring.

Best Practice Assessment

PrinciplesF O R C E

Familiarise yourself with the exercise and target criteria

Observe the applicant’s behaviour fully and with an open mind

Record the behaviours fully and accurately without judgement or

evaluation at this stage

Classify the evidence from the behaviour demonstrated in relation to

the target criteria

Evaluate the quality of the evidence in relation to the target criteria38

Assessment Bias

Aim to be fair and unbiased when observing and recording behaviour.

Discrimination: Stereotypes can be powerful barriers to accurate observation.

'Halos and Horns': First impressions we make, influence later perceptions.

Halo Effects - occur when a person makes a positive first impression which then colours everything they say or

do.

Horn Effects - negative impressions created in the first place could have a lasting effect.

'Red Rags': Habits, words, phrases which to you may be like a 'red rag to a bull’, causing irritation and stopping

active listening.

Attribution Effects: Attributing 'inappropriate' behaviour in a person to an inherent part of their personality, rather than

circumstance or situation.

Primacy & Recency Effects: Remembering the behaviour or comments from either the beginning or the end of an encounter.

May remember applicants from the start or end of the day rather than the middle.

Concentration: Difficult to concentrate on something for more than 10 minutes; be aware of this to avoid

unintentionally missing important information

39

Exercise:

Reviewing the EvidenceReview examples of observation notes recorded by assessors as evidence of applicant

behaviours in a role-play exercise:Which are effective records of applicant behaviour?

Which are subjective judgements or vague, general records which do not describe actual

behaviour?Example Observation Note

A) Tested the role-player’s understanding by repeating back their comments and seeking confirmation of accuracy

B) Inappropriately dressed, not very professional

C) Interrupted the role-player when he was trying to explain how he was feeling

D) Dealt with the role-player’s concerns excellently

E) Referred the role-player to the internet for more information but did not suggest any specific websites

F) Mature, considered approach to the exercise40
