Rapport is recognized as one of the most critical variables to ensuring a successful interview. But what exactly does it mean and how does it translate into the interview experience? In this webinar, we will walk through the conventional definition of rapport, explain its direct connection to the interview and discuss ways to strategically leverage its impact to ensure a non-confrontational, truthful interaction between the subject and the interviewer.
