  23. What Works in Teacher Selection?

  24. Role of Hiring Hiring plays an essential role in building a strong instructional team and organization capacity. A fit between new instructors’ skills, interests, and expertise and the positions they obtain is important both for improving the instructional quality, as well as for improving instructor satisfaction and addressing instructor shortage.

  25. Think about Your Experiences with Teacher Selection What Doesn’t? What Works?

  26. What Doesn’t Work Well? • Unstructured interviews • Yes/No questions • Situational questions • Confirming first impressions

  27. Fact = 14% Opinion = 34% Situation = 19% Experience = 33% HR Favorite Questions Note: Convenience sample of workshop participants N=219

  28. Quick Decision Making How long does it take interviewers to make a decision about the suitability of the candidate?

  29. Did You Know …? • Favorable first impression followed by: • Positive style of interviewing • “Selling the company” • Less information gathering • Bonus to final rating of applicant

  30. Did You Know …? • Positive first impression: • Positive evidence sought • Negative first impression: • Negative evidence NOT sought, but • Negative information obtained is heavily weighted • Result: • First impressions skew accuracy of interview

  31. First Impression: First Second of Meeting • Facial expression • Dress • Gestures • Body Size

  32. Snap Judgments Influence of Nonverbal Behavior Negative Emphasis Factors Influencing Interviewers’ Judgments Contrast Error Poor Job Knowledge Pressure for Hire

  36. Four Compelling Reasons for Structured Interview Protocols • Reliability– structured interviews tend to have higher inter-rater reliability than unstructured interviews • Standardization – structured interviews place more burden on the instrument than a particular interviewer’s interviewing and assessment skills • Fairness– structured interviews treat applicants in a consistent manner • Evidence-based - structured interviews focus on evidence from prompts to determine adequacy of answers. Source: Hough,& Oswald (2000); Le, Oh, Shaffer, & Smith (2007).

  37. Increasing the Validity and Reliability of Interviews CONTENT ACTIONS PROCESS ACTIONS 1. Ask the same questions of each candidate (i.e., structured interview protocol). 1. Base interview questions on a job analysis.   2. Use detailed rating scales, with behavioral descriptions to illustrate scale points. 2. Take notes that focus on behavioral information about candidates (collect evidence). 3. Use statistical weights for each dimension, as well as an overall judgment of suitability, to combine information. 3. Use multiple interviewers. 4. Do not discuss candidates or answers between interviews. 4. Provide training on interviewing and the protocol.
