Hi
We have done various competency based interviews, and even considered the idea of Psychometric testing, however I am really looking for some competency based interview questions to figure out if people have common sense..
Some people may say use questions where we have come across the scenario previously and using a 'what if..' question, however if someone was paying attention to the question they would always answer what you would like to hear.
If any has any ideas or past experience of asking questions to determine whether someone as common sense that would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Tom

Hi Tom
I have a long list of competency based questions, but they really do depend (in my humble opinion) on the nature of the role you are recruiting for. What are the key competencies of the role and what information are you trying to get from the questions.

With regards to the role its for a Business Development Consultant, however what we find with a lot of people at the moment is that some will have common sense but no commercial awareness, some with commercial awareness but no common sense...
I have a number questions on commercial awareness but common sense questions are harder to figure out.. I know it terms of competencies I could break down common sense into, risk/problem anaylsis, awareness and judgement and have been trying to devise questions around the above.
I have developed a few questions, but as of yet none of them are exactly the question I need...
I suppose without having full knowledge of the company, what we look for and so forth not many people will be in a great position to help out!
Back to the drawing board I suppose :comp
