Top tip for interviewing candidates Be A Detective🕵️♂️ It's easy for someone to lie on their CV, but not quite so easy for them to get away with it in person. I'm not saying you should be shining a light in their eyes and slamming the table, but do be sure to ask for the candidate to go more in-depth about their achievements and examples of when they have demonstrated their skills. Don't ask what they would do, ask what they have done. (Dog pic because they always seem to do well on the internet)
