Is it okay to conduct group interviews to make a hiring selection, where two or more candidates hear the interview questions at the same time and then take turns responding?
While there is nothing illegal about this, and it might save you some time in scheduling and conducting interviews, you should also remember that people are applying for jobs or to be promoted, and whoever goes last might have an advantage over whoever first answered a question. There are some special assessment processes where candidates participate in group exercises, referred to as Assessment Centers, but these specialty assessment procedures require a high level of focused resources, expertise and time.
