Hi Manju,
While taking an interview, look for the candidate's attitude. Start by asking basic questions, such as "Describe yourself," and also inquire about topics that might make the candidate uncomfortable. This approach can help you assess the candidate's temperament. The more you engage in conversation with the candidate, the better you will be able to gain insight into their psyche. I hope this helps.

Hi Deepu,
Nice link. Manju, it's important that you know how the candidate will fit into your company culture. You can ask him about his ambitions and plans. This will give you insight into how rationally he thinks and how long he intends to stay with your company.

Hi,
First and foremost, the thing is building a rapport with the candidate and making him/her feel comfortable to speak out. Because unless he speaks out, we may not be in a position to judge the candidate. Start talking to him, beginning from his family background, i.e., being more generic, and later on his education background, and slowly to his career profile. Ask him to talk more about his company. Make him talk as much as you can and be a good listener. If he is a tech-savvy guy, ask him more about his projects done, show curiosity to know more.
You should also have a candidate assessment form designed where everything gets documented. For example, communication skills, initiative, confidence level, etc.
Thanks,
MTS
This approach would be more applicable for junior and mid-level candidates.

Dear Manju,
I am not sure if it's too late to comment. Always keep in mind the purpose of the interview. Consider the department's culture and whether the candidate can fit in. What type of competencies does the individual possess that align with the job requirements? What kind of person are you looking for?
I always assess the attitude of the individual and their potential fit within the department and organization. There isn't much point in bringing in a person who might leave within 1-2 years.
