Grace who works for an international NGO as a HR manager was gracious enough to provide us with A HR perspective. Here is her part of the story.

1. I think calling them “Interviews” is actually misleading. The right word should be “Conversations”. The subject matter wraps around whether or not a match between you and the company you’re in conversation with would benefit both parties. Don’t feel like each time you get asked a question, it’s your job to blather on & on. Give them a chance to converse with you – even if they decide to make you an offer despite your wall-of-sound in the conversation, how are you ever going to evaluate the pros & cons of the job if you never gave the other party a chance to talk about the role?
