Understanding Your Candidate's Soft Skills with Alooba Interview

When hiring for a role, it's important to go beyond just evaluating a candidate's technical skills. Soft skills, such as communication, problem-solving, and leadership, are just as important in determining if a candidate is the right fit for the role. This is where Alooba's Interview product comes in - it provides a platform for evaluating both technical skills and soft skills.

The Importance of Evaluating Soft Skills

Soft skills refer to a set of non-technical abilities and personal qualities that are essential for success in the workplace. These skills include communication, problem-solving, leadership, teamwork, and time management, among others. Soft skills are becoming increasingly important in today's fast-paced and rapidly changing work environment.

Using Alooba Interview to Evaluate Soft Skills

Alooba's Interview product is designed to evaluate a candidate's soft skills. Once candidates are shortlisted from the screening tests, they can be invited to a live interview where the interviewer(s) are provided with a specific set of topics to discuss and questions to ask. The interviewer can mark the candidate's responses against the provided marking guide as they are conducting the interview, allowing them to get a deeper understanding of the candidate's soft skills.

The Benefits of Using Alooba Interview for Soft Skills Evaluation

By using Alooba's Interview product, you can gain a deeper understanding of your candidate's soft skills. This information can be used to determine if the candidate is the right fit for your organization, and can also be used to help with onboarding and training, as well as career development.

Using Alooba Interview for Technical Evaluations

It's important to note that Alooba's Interview product can also be used for evaluating a candidate's technical skills. The interviewer can ask questions related to the candidate's technical knowledge, allowing them to get a deeper understanding of the candidate's abilities and knowledge.
