Making sure we have an easily manageable interview process
We know that many people want to have a say in appointing a candidate but we also know the process works better with a carefully selected group managing the process. We aim to limit the numbers involved in interviews to 4/5 and manage the interview day so it offers the best possible experience for parish and candidate.
- An interview panel is selected with appropriate representation
- All application forms are sent to the Panel and Bishop’s Core Group
- Candidates are shortlisted
- The panel arranges and conducts the interviews. (we have guidance, checklists and sample questions so a parish can conduct a successful interview)
- Bishop’s Lodge arranges to post interview legal checks for the successful candidate
- Archdeacon debriefs unsuccessful candidates
- If there is no successful candidate the Archdeacon and Panel agree an appropriate way forward.
