Interviewing 7/15/08

The interviewing class was also very helpfull. Blair taught us the value of time with the person that is being interviewed, don't ask unnecessary questions about the person being interviewed and you should have background information on the person already so that the ice can be broken right away. Make sure to accommodate the person being interviewed, have them in a comfortable setting so that they can be more open to conversation. Don't ask yes or no questions ask questions, you want to get the person to elaborate on the questions you ask and not just have them respond with a yes or no.
Avoid phone interviews; you want to see the other person and get reactions from them. If they avoid an answer you can see their reactions and certain things they do. Just get straight to the point.
