An interview is a structured conversation between an employer and a candidate to evaluate suitability for a role. It typically involves questions about skills, experience, and problem-solving abilities. Interviews can be conducted in person, over the phone, or virtually. They assess technical knowledge, communication skills, and cultural fit within the organization. Preparation is key—research the company, review the job description, and practice common questions. Interviews may include behavioral, technical, or situational components. The goal is to demonstrate competence, confidence, and alignment with the employer’s needs. Successful interviews often lead to job offers or further selection stages.
