Different interview methods for what exactly?
Members could help you more effectively if you provided some background information about your organization, your recruiting process, etc.
Who are you interviewing—shop assistants, factory workers, sales staff, rocket scientists, or cleaners? How you interview people depends on who you are interviewing and for what position.
Finally, too many organizations get bogged down in fancy interview techniques and methods, not to mention unnecessary game-playing. If your recruitment process is flawed, or worse still, non-existent, no interview method will save you from the disaster and wasted expense of a wrong hire.

Hello Fariha, As mentioned by Aussiejohn, your question seems incomplete.
Anyways, interview methods often vary for different job profiles. But, here are some of the common types of interviews you should know about:
Behavioral interviews: In these interviews, employers try to understand how a candidate has dealt with certain situations in the past.
Case interviews: In this scenario, candidates are usually given a situation and asked for a solution.
Stress interviews: In this type of interview, employers try to check how well a candidate handles stress by asking tricky questions.
Group interviews: In such interviews, multiple candidates are interviewed at the same time.
Panel interviews: In this case, many interviewers interview a candidate.
There are more, but these are the most common interview methods.
Hope this answer helps you.
