Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

After the interview, the next step in the selection process is usually to verify the candidate's qualifications through background checks, such as verifying education and work experience, and conducting criminal record checks. Only after this step is completed can the recruiter move on to negotiating salary and benefits, sending a job offer letter, and getting the candidate to sign the offer. Reviewing work samples may be part of the interview process, but it is not necessarily the next step in the selection process.
