This simulator is a powerful skill-building tool beneficial to all interviewers that involves practice assessing and scoring candidate responses, making hiring decisions, and receiving feedback on how well you did... ultimately leading you to becoming a more confident and competent interviewer. 

You can practice after learning motivation-based interviewing. You can practice before an interview as a refresher. Purchase individually or check out our corporate pricing options.

The MBI SIMULATOR© Helps You Master Your Skill At Correctly 
Identifying And Hiring High Performers

PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE... MAKES PERFECT!

DELIVERY DRIVER PRACTICE INTERVIEW:

TRY NOW FOR FREE! (Anyone can access—no payment required) Can you pick the High Performer? What if you have two candidates who are equally skilled? How do you determine who will be the best hire? This practice interview is to fill an hourly delivery driver position. Your goal is to hire the candidate who will be the best job performer when skill isn't the deciding criterion. Since skill level alone is never an accurate predictor of future performance, using motivation-based interviewing gives you the edge by allowing you to assess the three components that all top performers share that enable them to achieve their above-average results. If you're MBI trained, then you know those three components are skill, attitude, and passion. Here's a clue about this practice interview—it's either going to be the candidate's attitude, passion, or both that will clue you into who is the best hire. 

This free-version practice interview consists of two job candidates who answer three O-SAE questions that assess skill and attitude, five passion questions, plus two additional attitude questions. You will score both candidates on the electronic worksheet/interview guide, select the candidate you think is the High Performer, and then learn if you got it right. This practice interview takes approximately 20 minutes to complete. To access the additional detailed scoring feedback, a purchase is required.
