Employee Screening Questionnaire-2 Interview Guide

What is the ESQ2 Interview Guide?

The ESQ2 Interview Guide provides a series of employment interview questions that were developed to guide the interview process based on an applicant’s ESQ2 results. It also provides best practice interview guidelines as well as step by step information to help structure the interview process from start to finish. When used in combination with the ESQ2 report, this guide will help test takers better understand an applicant’s fit for the job and ultimately make better hiring decisions.
