Answer to Question 1

Explanation: 1. Interrater reliability is agreement between two interviews of the same candidate by several
interviewers. Intrarater reliability is agreement between two interviews of the same candidate
by the same interviewer. Validity is the ability to predict job performance. Construct validity
means the standardized interview questions will accurately predict job performance.

ability to perform the job. First impressions may lead to premature judgments and hasty

questions elicit yes or no answers and do not provide much information.
