Only one thing I would add somewhere between 4 and 5 is, every member of the panel needs to keep a record of all the interviews. Doing it on a grid is good, but you also need to record the answers from each candidate. Not verbatim, of course, just enough so each panel member can be reminded of what they thought of each one at the interview. You have to be pessimistic and assume that at some stage, somebody is going to make you justify your choice. Also, unsuccessful candidates are entitled to feedback, so you need to know what you thought of them and why. Interesting and useful tips there!
