“…Kelly and his associates, for example, have taught job interviewing skills to retarded adolescents (Kelly et al, 1980) and formerly hospitalized psychiatric patients (Furman, Geller, Simon, & Kelly, 1979;Kelly, Laughlin, Claiborne, & Patterson, 1979). Social skills training also has been used to teach job interviewing skills to probationers with a psychiatric history (Twentyman, Jensen, & Kloss, 1978), teenaged mothers (Schinke, Gil-Christ, Smith, & Wong, 1978), rehabilitation clients (Vernardos & Harris, 1973), adolescent boys (Braukmann, Fixsen, Phillips, Wolf, & Maloney, 1974), college graduates (Hollandsworth, Glazeski, & Dressel, 1978), and unemployed adults with work-related disabilities (Mathews, 1984).…”

Little attention has been given to the role of the job applicant in the interview. From an organizational perspective, research data exist on interview reliability and validity, decision-making in the interview, and the training of interviewers, to name a few. Surprisingly, however, little information exists on job applicant interview behavior. This lack of research is intriguing, given the emphasis on interviewing by job hunting experts and writers in the career counseling and guidance disciplines (Adler, 1964;Bolles, 1979;Dubnick, 1967).Although research on the psychological aspects of interviewer decision making has revealed factors influencing interviewer decisions

Little research attention has focused on the job‐search behavior of minimally educated workers. The primary objective of the studies reported was to examine the relationship of self‐reported assertive job‐hunting behavior to acquisition of employment among minimally educated workers. The results of three studies provide: (a) construct validity evidence for the Assertive Job‐Hunting Survey (AJHS; Becker, 1980), (b) evidence for construct similarity across minimally educated job seeker and college student populations, (c) evidence of a significant relationship between the AJHS and both subjective and objective job acquisition criteria in postdictive and predictive research designs, and (d) evidence that the AJHS, a measure of a non‐cognitive variable, can make a unique contribution to the prediction of job acquisition beyond cognitive ability measures.
