The SELECT Job Task module is an online interview which asks the candidate about his or her willingness to perform important tasks related to the job. Areas where the candidate expresses reluctance should be probed further in the interview. (These items can be customised for your organisation.)

The Counter-Productive Behaviours module will highlight certain items within each SELECT survey if they are answered in an undesirable way. There are two versions of this module, attitude-based or admissions-based. Attitude-based questions ask individuals about their personal beliefs. Admissions-based questions ask individuals about prior use or experience (these are relevant to drug use and theft). Both are assessments of counter-productive behaviours and include topic areas of drug use, theft, job commitment, work ethic, resistance to direction, safety, etc.

One should use this information to further investigate potential problem areas during the interview or through reference checks.

Caution: Questions relating to drug use and theft are prohibited in some countries/states. Check regulations particular to your legal jurisdiction before implementing.

If the optional structured interview is included with the report, a detailed interview guide will be printed. This guide will include:

• A script to open the interview.
• A series of job-related interview questions with guidance as to what to listen for in the candidate’s responses.
• Interview Probes based on survey results.

By using this structured interview guide consistently (meaning you ask the same questions of every candidate), you will bring increased objectivity to the process.

Note: Interview guides are customised for the job and the client.
