Why do jobs conduct multiple interviews?

Phone screening; video interview; in person interview, why not do everything at once?? 馃檮馃檮

Because different interviewers are interested in certain answers at each level.

First, they want to know if you are what you say you are in your CV.

Second, they want to know if you have skills or experiences they are looking for.

Third, they want to see how you compare against all the other prospects that reached the 2nd stage.

If you are being interviewed initially by a DECISION MAKER or a major STAKEHOLDER, the screening process will be quicker, but it's not set up like that with large companies.

Edit: Depending on how sensitive the role is, a background check can be done.

@IamCuriousBabe you don鈥檛 think it鈥檚 feasible to just do one video interview?

@SW-User Depends on the role. Can't be decided on when the candidate is being screened for multiple skill sets. Compare applying for a job as a restaurant server versus an IT project manager.
