How to Conduct an Interview: Cognito Guides

This Cognito Guide is based on experience of being interviewed, and of conducting interviews both as panel member and as chairperson the British Civil Service and in the private sector.

As your career develops, you will, sooner or later, find yourself facing an interview not as a candidate but as one of those ogres: the Interview Panel. You may even find yourself being the Interview Panel chairperson: the one in the middle of the interrogators.

This Cognito Guide aims to equip you with the necessary preparation, ideas and skills needed to successfully conduct an interview.
