Pre-Screening Interview: what is and how to prepare for it - Juliana Rabbi

How to be successful in your next pre-screening interview

🔹 Do you know what a pre-screening interview is?

It’s normally the first conversation you have with someone inside the company you want to work for.

It has a more informal tone and it will be short (between 5 - 20 minutes).

It can be so informal that some job seekers “forget” it is still an interview and don’t prepare well for that!


🔹 Why do pre-screening interviews happen?

Because the company wants to confirm if you meet the job requirements and if you are available.

It’s a way to “double-check” if you are a good fit for the job before they spend more time doing a long interview.


🔹 What will happen after?

If your pre-screening interview goes well, the company will invite you for a formal job interview.

So, remember that this is a decisive part of the recruitment process!


🔹 What if the pre-screening interview goes wrong?

Well… unfortunately you will be eliminated from the recruitment process.

The recruiter will choose another candidate.
