Do you think that a job interview is sufficient and effective to select and evaluate the applicant and determine his or her fate?

Job interview alone is not enough to select and evaluate an applicant because he/she will show their best in order to impress the interviewer. 

I prefer to check with previous employers and colleagues and verify all the information stated on the CV. 

remember that we should hire a person, first for character and then train for competence. 

the Character of the person, especially his or her "attitude" is the most important aspect in a person because this determines who we are going to work with. 

We should also carry out a competency test to verify the skills that the candidate has. 

Thanks for invitation,

In my opinion, before any job interview, the candidate's C.V. has to be reviewed carefully to be sure that his educational background, working experience, and skills are matched with job specified description required.

Of course not. But the interview is the heavier factor that employers consider, as they could determine what kind of personality is the interviewee, although their decision could be not accurate enough.

I believe that a job interview is a very good tool in evaluating and selecting an applicant for a position but I also think that there are other ways to use to evaluate the true qualifications and skills of a person such as during the job itself or during trainings.

In my past work I've had experience interviewing applicants who are applying for a position in our department. Most of them are very good in the interviews but once they were put into actual work I notice that they are not really what they say they are. However there are some who are seems  not to be a very vocal person when it comes to interviews but you will see that they have the ability and skills. 

Thanks

No !, after select the applicant we need the probation period to determine the effectiveness of this applicant

Job interview gives you a chance to interact face to face with the candidate to know his/her personality, confidence and clearify any doubts or gaps in her CV. It helps you make the final decision but it should comprehend candidate's experience and qualification as well as his/her performance in the interview. Thus interview plays an integral part in selection and recruitment process.

Yes sure enough to determine the fate of the employee

Eyes are the mirror of the soul and they always speak the feeling and intention of work

Hi,

In my view, a job interview is fair enough to evaluate and select the candidate. Based on the hiring position, I usally prefers to go for unstructured interview type with Behavioral questions for experienced and Situational questions to analzyse and evaluate the member. Getting a success rate of 80% in it.

Thanks

No, It is one of the factors that contributing for selection for particular job. Other factors are his/ her educational qualifications,experience in his field, specialized training related to field and skills attitude, knowledge and special training or experience in related supplimental fields and lastly but not least references from his / her previous employers . all this things take into consideration when selecting particular employee for any job

The purpose of the job interview is to help you and the employer determine if you're a good match for the open position only, it cannot determine his or her fate.

Following are few examples who created history and their fate was not decided by interview - All were rejected in interview

Jack Ma - Founder Alibaba

Madonna

Elvis Presley 

Steven Spielberg 

and many others...

A job interview is an effective way to evaluate an applicant and determine his or her fate but not the sufficient way to do it, on the effective way it enables a company to learn more about an applicant for the process allows both parties to exchange information, ask questions and evaluate the potential for establishing a professional working relationship

On the other hand Job interview is not the sufficient way to determine his or her fate because the interviews rely on the interviewers own sense of judgement and dont guarantee the best outcome, and in most cases job interviews also majorly rely on interpersonal interaction and subjective judgements more than other forms of evaluation.
