Nevertheless, appointing authorities the world over, except a few have ignored the essence of interviews during the appointment of political appointees such as ministers, provincial commissioners, regional commissioners, district commissioners, permanent secretaries, chief executive officers of various government corporations, and local authorities. Hence, the expectations of performance of these appointees is actually at gambling. This paper sets an agenda on the importance of interviews to the political appointees prior to affirmation to the vacancies desired. The study is a review, and thus it utilizes systemic thinking, documentation, observation and experiential in expounding and narrating the concepts on discussion. The analysis of conceptual discussion assumes descriptive methods. The paper concludes that so far it is imperative for the political appointees to undergo interviews prior affirmation to the various jobs. Short of interviews, government authorities will verge into reshuffle of cabinet ministers, and other cadres because were essentially vetted in through systems, which do not conduct an interactive interview to weigh the ability of an appointee. Development is war, we must assess every aspect of proper utilization of human resources for the attainment of sustainable development.
