You are expected to be skillful interviewers, but let's face it...in today's environment interview-savvy job candidates have learned how to ace interviews and make themselves sound like Super Stars...even when they're not. It's the interviewer's responsibility to gather quality candidate information to make a sound hiring decision despite this environment.
