Hiring interviews have become full of unwritten rules, outdated questions, and “tests” that often have little to do with whether someone can actually do the job.
In this episode of Next at Work, Brendan Jeannetti sits down with Lorna Erickson and Victoria Gates of Expert Interviewers to unpack what’s broken about modern interviewing — and what hiring teams should do instead.
They discuss the infamous coffee cup test, why “tell me about yourself” needs to go, how bad interviews can signal a bad employee experience, and why interviewing should be a two-way conversation. Lorna and Victoria also share practical advice for creating more structured, transparent, and human hiring processes.
In this episode:
- Why “invisible tests” hurt the hiring process
- The interview questions Lorna and Victoria want retired
- Why candidates should be evaluating employers, too
- How to talk honestly about compensation and company culture
- Why defining “what good looks like” should happen before the first interview
- How recruiters and hiring managers can work better together
- The role AI should — and shouldn’t — play in hiring
