Types of interviews in selection process :
Formal Interview:
Formal interviews may be held in the employment office by the employment officer in a more formal atmosphere, with the help of well-structured questions. The time and place of the interview will be stipulated by the employment officer.
Informal Interview :
An informal interview is an oral interview and may take place anywhere. The employee or the manager or the personnel manager may ask a few almost inconsequential questions like name, place of birth, names of relatives etc. either in their respective offices or anywhere outside the plant of company. It is not planned and nobody prepares for it. This is used widely when the labour market is tight and when you need workers badly.
