It is quite normal for the candidate to be interviewed by more than one person. The interviewers would then compare notes before deciding which candidate to appoint.

The candidates may be given a test, in which the candidate's potential to perform the necessary activities is measured. An aptitude test will cover areas such as:

- mental abilities, e.g. powers of reasoning

- physical qualities, e.g. co-ordination

- arithmetical abilities, e.g. addition and multiplication. An intelligence test may be used to find out the candidate's general powers of reasoning. The test will normally be a written one, made up of numerical, diagrammatical and verbal questions, such as identifying one or more shapes which have common features. Or writing down the next number in a series. Or comparing a series of words to see which have similar meanings. Usually a certain time limit is given for the testee. Once the test is completed, it is marked and a score is obtained.

The company may also insist on a medical examination before the job offer is confirmed. This will give a clear indication as to whether the applicant is physically suitable for the post.

Once an applicant has accepted a post, a letter is sent, confirming the appointment. In the same letter the conditions of service will often be included. This sets out the employee's statutory legal rights and obligations. The terms and conditions will cover areas such as:

- name and address of the employer and employee;

- date employment begins;

- job title and job description;

- level of pay and whether it will be received weekly or monthly;

- holiday entitlement;

- hours of work;

- conditions relating to sickness pay;

- conditions relating to the pension scheme;

- amount of notice the employee has to give the firm if he/she is leaving;

- notice of any disciplinary procedure used by the company.
