Essential IX: Baccalaureate Generalist Nursing Practice
The baccalaureate graduate nurse is prepared to practice with
5. because of their convenience and low cost and because they
makes it easier to interview
people in different geographic areas, thereby expanding the
talent pool. However, a study
by DeGroote School of Business at McMaster University in
Ontario, Canada, found that
candidates interviewed via video came across as less likable.
Some candidates may be
more comfortable on camera or using the technology than other
candidates. The
researchers suggested that at a minimum all candidates be
treated the same in terms of the
methods by which they are interviewed.
In The Internship, Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson’s characters
illustrate what can
go wrong when you don’t know how to do a live video
interview.

Phone interviews can be effective and actually help expand a
company’s pool of talent as
well. Via phone, Pacific Islands Club, a resort in Guam, is able
to recruit people from around
6. the world who want to work for the resort. Rebecca Cummings,
a young woman living in the
United States, went to work for the Pacific Islands Club as an
activities director after
successfully interviewing via phone. A face-to-face interview
would have been cost
prohibitive.
Computer-Administered (Automated) Interviews
Nike, Safeway Cigna Insurance, and Pinkerton Security are
among the many companies
that have used computer-assisted, or automated, interviews to
gather information as well as
compare candidates. In a computer-administered (automated)
interview (Interviews in
which the questions are administered to applicants via
computers. The interviews can be
conducted at a firm’s facilities, using kiosks, online or via
phone) , the questions are
administered to applicants via a computer. The interviews can
be conducted at a firm’s
facilities using kiosks, online, or via phone. Some firms use
automated video interviewing
services like Vidcruiter or Job-applications.com. Applicants are
invited to interview by e-mail,
given passwords to log onto the sites, and then given questions
to answer, which are then
recorded and sent to the hiring firm.
Managers can then watch the interviews at their convenience. A
drawback is that they can’t
ask candidates follow-up questions based on their answers.
Consequently, organizations
have used automated interviews mainly as a complement to,
rather than as a replacement
7. for, live interviews. Highlights in HRM 3 lists some of the
blunders made by job
applicants in interviews.
Highlights in HRM 3
Hiring Managers Reveal Mistakes Candidates Make during Job
Interviews
Hiring managers often share the most memorable blunders that
caused them to
pass on a particular candidate. Below is a sample of some of
them.
“The candidate spoke no English, so he brought his mother to
translate for
him during the interview. It was for a customer-service
position.”
“She kept telling me about her marital problems.”
“The candidate knew nothing about the job being offered or our
organization.”
“One guy ate a sandwich.”
“The candidate asked me to hurry up because she left her child
in the car.”
“He told me the only reason he was here was because his mother
wanted him
to get a job. He was 37.”

10. amount of freedom in determining the course of the discussion,
while the interviewer
carefully refrains from influencing the applicant’s remarks) ,
the interviewer asks broad,
open-ended questions—such as “Tell me more about your
experiences on your last job”—
and permits the applicant to talk freely with a minimum of
interruption. The greater freedom
afforded to the applicant helps uncover information a candidate
might not disclose during
more structured questioning. However, because the applicant
determines the course of the
interview the information gathered on one applicant can be
vastly different than the
information gathered on another. Thus the reliability and
validity of these interviews are not
likely to be as great.
Structured Interviews
A structured interview (An interview in which a set of
standardized questions having an
established set of answers is used) has a set of standardized
questions (based on a job
analysis) and an established set of answers against which
applicant responses can be
rated. Thus, it provides a more consistent basis for evaluating
job candidates. According to
a report by the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board, a quasi-
judicial agency that serves as
the guardian of federal merit systems, structured interviews are
twice as likely as
nondirective interviews to predict on-the-job performance. HR
staff members of
Weyerhaeuser Company, a forest products firm, have developed
a structured interviewing
11. process used for all candidates. Candidates’ responses are rated
on a five-point scale
relative to those answers, and the interviewers take notes for
future reference and in case of
a legal challenge. Structured interviews are also less likely than
nondirective interviews to
be attacked in court.
Situational Interviews
A situational interview (An interview in which an applicant is
given a hypothetical incident
and asked how he or she would respond to it) is a variation of a
structured interview. An
applicant is given a hypothetical incident and asked how he or
she would respond to it. The

applicant’s response is then evaluated relative to preestablished
benchmark standards.
Many organizations use situational interviews to select new
college graduates because they
may lack actual situations in the workplace they can describe.
Highlights in HRM 2 shows a
sample question from a situational interview used to select
12. systems analysts at a chemical
plant.
Behavioral Description Interviews
A behavioral description interview (BDI) (An interview in
which an applicant is asked
questions about what he or she actually did in a given situation)
focuses on actual work
incidents in the interviewee’s past and what the applicant did in
response. To assess a
potential manager’s ability to handle a problem employee, an
interviewer might ask, “Tell me
about the last time you disciplined an employee.”
A BDI assumes that past performance is the best predictor of
future performance. The
format also may be somewhat less susceptible to applicant
faking. In addition, research
indicates that the behavioral description interview is more
effective than the situational
interview for hiring higher-level positions such as general
managers and executives.
Sequential and Panel Interviews
A sequential interview (A format in which a candidate is
interviewed by multiple people,
one right after another) is one in which a candidate is
interviewed by multiple people, one
right after another. Sequential interviews are very common.
They allow different interviewers
who have a vested interest in the candidate’s success to meet
and evaluate the person one-
on-one. The interviewers later get together and compare their
assessments of the
13. candidates.

Sample Situational Interview Question
Questions:
It is the night before your scheduled vacation. You are all
packed and ready to go.
Just before you get into bed, you receive a phone call from the
plant. A problem has
arisen that only you can handle. You are asked to come in to
take care of things.
What would you do in this situation?
