Hi Rajani,
Did not quite understand "I want to concentrate on Recruitment".
Do you mean you're suypposed to do recruitment?
or you'e switching to another firm and recruiting is your responsibility?
Assuming you're about to start with recruitment in the existing company, you should be gaining experience by observing first.
Start by going through the resumes and not what are the factors you look in from the resume.
Do a basic search.
Make a selection and rejection list.
From the selection list do another couple of rounds looking for and confirming the eligibility criteria.
Form a list and inform the HR Manager and then the candidates.
Inform the candidates, regarding.
If only you could clarify your quesry by detailing it, you could expect more replies.
Regards

Hi Rajani,
You still have not refined your query.
Do you mean you want to be one of the members in the interview panel?
You are already doing the start-up procedures for the recruitment and interview. So please explain what exactly do you want to do.

Hi Rajani,

There you go, now you've asked the right question.

Of course you can be in the interview panel.

But what is required is learning by way of observation.

Ususally in the panel there'll be a silent member, who does not ask questions, but watch the candidate. He would observe the body language of the candidate. But again for that you'll have to have experience.

What you can do is, sit in the panel as a non-participant. Just observe how the experieced interviewers conduct the interview. You'll realise how to ask the right questions to get the best answer from the candidate(which I presume you'll have to practice).

There are lot of minute procedures during a interview, which could only be learnt through observation - like what to do if the candidate is tensed, what to do if there is a distraction, how to end the interview etc.

No book can teach you these minute things.

I suggest, you sit with the panel as silent member for some 5-6 interviews and start by asking 2-3 questions per interview then on for another 3-4 interviews.

By then you would learn how to go about conducting the interview.

Its very easy, and if you have a liking towards it, you'll really enjoy it.

Good Luck
