Employment interviews can be conducted in a number of applicant-interviewer combinations including all the following except

A. panel interviews
B. group interviews
C. one-on-one interviews
D. one party interviews (the interviewer is not in attendance)
E. group panel interviews

Answer 1

Typical types of employment interviews include panel, group, one-on-one, and group panel interviews. The one option that is not a typical format is 'one-party interviews,' where the interviewer is not in attendance, as interviews normally require direct interaction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Employment interviews can be conducted in various formats to assess the suitability of applicants for a job position. The combinations including the types of interviews typically used in the selection process are:

• Panel interviews: where a candidate is interviewed by multiple members of the organization at once.
• Group interviews: where multiple candidates are interviewed together.
• One-on-one interviews: where an individual candidate is interviewed by a single interviewer.
• Group panel interviews: a combination of panel and group interviews, where multiple interviewers interview multiple candidates.

The option that is not a typical format for employment interviews is D. one-party interviews (the interviewer is not in attendance). Employment interviews typically require the presence of the interviewer to interact with, observe, and evaluate the candidate directly.
