Question 8 • Career Planning and Development

Which example is a performance job interview?

Answer
A
A candidate for a sales job at an advertising agency describes their prior work experience.
B
A candidate for a job at a law firm provides two official documents to verify their identity.
C
A person applying to be a chef prepares a meal for the owner of a restaurant.
D
A person applying to be an office manager meets with an executive at a company.

Explanation

A performance job interview asks a candidate to demonstrate job-related skills by completing a task. Preparing a meal lets the restaurant owner evaluate the applicant’s cooking ability, so the chef application is the performance interview. Describing past experience or meeting with an executive does not directly demonstrate performance, and providing identity documents is a verification step.
